Answer:

4950 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the formula for the speed (v) is given by the quotient of the distance traveled (d) divided by the time (t) it took to cover that distance:


v=(d)/(t)

Therefore, for this case in which the car travels at 55 m/s for 90 seconds, we can replace these values in the formula, and solve for the distance covered:


v =(d)/(t) \\55 (m)/(s) =(d)/(90\,s) \\d=55*90 m\\\\d=4950\,m
