Deandre is driving to Denver. Suppose that the distance to his destination (in miles) is a linear function of his total driving time (in minutes). Deandre has miles to his destination after minutes of driving, and he has miles to his destination after minutes of driving. How many miles will he have to his destination after minutes of driving

Answer and explanation:

If distance to his destination(in miles) is a function of his minutes of driving(time) then the formula can suffice:

Distance = Speed × Time

if distance is 5 miles to his destination

Speed is 1 mile/hr

Time taken is 4 hrs or 240 minutes

Then Deandre would have 1 mile left to reach his destination after 240 minutes
