Answer:7.75 km so approximately 7.8 km

Step-by-step explanation:

i am not sure but i think the answer is 7.8 km

14:50 - 14:35= 15 minutes

because in every hour the bus travel 31 km/h so,

31 km/h divided by 60

multiply the answer by 15 = 7.75 km

Answer:

7.8 km

Explanation:

You want the distance between two points when the travel time is 15 minutes at an average speed of 31 km/h.

Distance

The relation between time, speed, and distance is ...

distance = speed × time

Here, the time is the difference between 14:50 and 14:35, which is 50-35 = 15 minutes. In terms of hours, that is 15/60 = 1/4 hours.

The speed is given as 31 km/h, so the distance is ...

(31 km/h)×(1/4 h) = 31/4 km = 7.75 km ≈ 7.8 km

The distance between the two bus stops is about 7.8 km.
