Answer:

The car will be able to travel 2,000 miles in 2 hours

Explanation:

The rule of the distance is D = v × t, where

  • v is the speed
  • t is the time

∵ The car has a top speed of 1,000 miles each hour

v = 1,000 miles/hour

∵ The car will travel for 2 hours

t = 2 hours

→ By using the rule of the distance

∵ D = v × t

→ Substitute the values of v and t in the rule to find D

∴ D = 1,000 × 2

D = 2,000 miles

The car will be able to travel 2,000 miles in 2 hours
