Question

The distance traveled varies directly with the time spent in motion when speed is held constant.

If d represents the distance traveled and t represents time, which equation would represent this variation?
If you travel 150 miles in 4 hours, what is the constant of variation?
If you continue traveling at a constant speed, how long will it take to travel 200 miles? Round to the nearest tenth of
an hour.

Answer 1

16/3 or 5.3

Explanation:

150 miles = 4 hours

Find how long it takes to travel 50 miles(GCF between 150 and 200)

150/3 = 4/3

50 miles = 1 1/3 hours: multiply by 4 to get 200 miles

50 x 4 = 4/3 x 4/1

200 = 16/3

16/3 hours or 5.3
