The time take for the cyclist to travel from Fort Worth to Fresno is
90 \ hours

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the distance from Fort Worth to Fresno is 1,530 miles.

The average speed of the cyclist is 17 miles per hour.

The time travelled by the cyclist can be determined using the formula,


Distance=Speed * Time

Substituting the value of distance and speed, we get,


1530=17* Time

Dividing both sides by 17, we get,


90 =Time

Thus, the time take for the cyclist to travel from Fort Worth to Fresno is
90 \ hours
