Question

A Chevy is traveling 10 mph faster than a Toyota. The Chevy is traveling at a rate of 60 mph.

Let T = the the speed of the Toyota.
Which formula below would correctly calculate the speed of the Toyota?
A.)T+(T-10 mph)= 60 mph
B.)T-10 mph=60 mph
C.)T+10 mph= 60 mph
D.)T+ (T+10 mph)= 65 mph

Answer 1

Answer: C.)T+10 mph= 60 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A Chevy is traveling 10 mph faster than a Toyota.

i.e. (speed of Toyota) +(10mph) = (speed of of Chevy)

If T = the speed of the Toyota and the speed of Chevy = 60 mph.

Then , we get

T+10 mph = 60 mph

Thus , the formula correctly calculate the speed of the Toyota would be :

T+10 mph = 60 mph

Hence, the correct option is C.)T+10 mph= 60 mph.

Answer 2

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. The formula that would represent the speed of the Toyota would be T+10 mph= 60 mph. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.
