Question

It took the race car 22 minutes to travel 114.4 kilometers. At what rate did the car travel? Use the formula r = StartFraction d Over t EndFraction, where r is the rate, d is the distance, and t is the time. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Its 5.2 kilometers a minute

Explanation:

I just took the test

Answer 2

The rate of car travel is 5.2 kilometers per minute.

Explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Total time of travel = 22 minutes

Total distance covered = 114.4 kilometers

We have to find the rate at which the car is travelling.

Formula:

Rate, r

`=(d)/(t)`

where d is the distance covered and t is the time.

Putting values, we get,

`r = (114.4)/(22)=5.2\text{ kilometers per minute}`

Thus, the rate of car travel is 5.2 kilometers per minute.
