Question

Max drove 185 miles on the Autobahn. He drove for 2 hours at 65 miles per hour, and then sped up to 110 miles per hour for the last part of his trip.

Solve this equation for t
to find out how many hours Max drove at 110 miles per hour.

185 = 65(2) + 110t

Answer 1

Max drove half an hour at 110 miles per hour.

Explanation:

185 = 65(2) + 110t

185 = 130 + 110t

-130 -130

---------------------------

55 = 110t

/110 /110

----------------------------

0.5 = t
