Question

12. A truck travelling at 110 km/h has to cover a distance of 640 km in the next 6 hours. Will the driver be on time if he can hold his current speed? (4 marks)

Answer 1

calculate the expected time of arrival, we need to divide the total distance by the speed of the truck.

In this case, the expected time of arrival would be:

640 km ÷ 110 km/h = 5.82 hours

So the driver should be able to arrive at the destination within 6 hours if he can hold his current speed.
