Answer:

1) d

2) 97.5 miles

3)I am unsure on

Explanation:

1) d=65t means that it is moving 65 miles per that amount of time (in this case using mph)

2) you take your equation "d=65t" and fill in your time (1.5) 65(1.5)=97.5

3) I don't know but possibly 2.5 minutes? (65/25) but I'm not sure I'm sorry
