Question

a driver needs to make a delivery to an office that is 30 km away. The driver has traveled for 45minutes west down a straight road at 50km/h. A has the driver traveled far enough to the office? support your response. B assume the driver has gone far enough and is traveling on the correct road. If he has not yet seen the business, what should he do to make the delivery? Explain your reasoning

Answer 1

The speed of the driver = 50 km/h

Distance from office = 30 km

Time travelled by driver = 0.75 h

Speed = Distance / time

∴ Distance = Speed * time

= 50 * 0.75 = 37.5 km

the distance travelled by the driver 37.5 km is greater than the distance from the office 30 km

he had already driven enough to reach the place
