Question

Vik wrote the equation 470 # h = 3,008, where h is the number of hours it took a plane flying at a constant speed of 470 miles per hour to travel 3,008 miles. Solve for h.

Answer 1

Answer: 6.4 hours

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Vik wrote the equation 470h = 3,008, where,

h = number of hours used by the plane.

To solve for h, goes thus:

470h = 3008

Divide both side by 470

470h/470 = 3008/470

h = 6.4 hours

Therefore, 6.4 hours was used by the plane.
