Answer:

The time taken by the driver is: t = 1.6 seconds

Explanation:

Given

Distance covered by a race car = d = 300 mile

Speed of a car = s = 183.2 mph

To determine

The time of the driver = t = ?

Using the formula to determine the time of the driver

distance = speed x time

d = st

t = d/s

substitute d = 300 and s = 183.2

t = 300 / 183.2

t = 1.6 seconds

Therefore, the time taken by the driver is: t = 1.6 seconds
