Answer:

Atlanta is at 596.0 km from the house.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between Atlanta and the house can be found using the following equation:


v = (d)/(t) (1)

Where:

v: is the speed = 80 km/h

t: is the time = 7.45 h

By solving equation (1) for d and entering the above values we have:


d = v*t = 80 km/h*7.45 h = 596.0 km = 596000 m

Therefore, Atlanta is at 596.0 km from the house.

I hope it helps you!
