The image of the 2 mile markers is missing as well as the options and so i have attached them.
Answer:
> 1.5 hours = 105 miles/speed
> Speed = 105 miles/1.5 hours
> 105 miles = 1.5 hours × speed
Explanation:
From the image attached, the distance of the first mile marker is given as 50 miles while the distance of the second mile marker is given as 155 miles.
Thus, difference in distance between the two markers; d = 155 - 50 = 105 miles
Also, we see that the time of first marker is 3 pm while the second marker is 4:30 pm.
Thus, difference in time = 4:30 - 3 = 1 hour 30 minutes or 1.5 hours.
We know that;
Speed = distance/time
Thus;
Speed = 105/1.5
Speed = 70 mph
Thus, the 3 equations that represent this situation from the options are;
> 1.5 hours = 105 miles/speed
> Speed = 105 miles/1.5 hours
> 105 miles = 1.5 hours × speed
