SOLUTION: you travel 275 miles in 5.5 hours if you drive at a constant speed the distance you drive varies directly with time spent a what is the constant variation b write an equation t

Question 218137: you travel 275 miles in 5.5 hours if you drive at a constant speed the distance you drive varies directly with time spent
a what is the constant variation
b write an equation that relates the distance driven at the time spent driving
c use equatio n t to find how long it takes to drive 350 miles
d use equation to find the distance travel in 4hours

a)
speed
b)
D=rt
r=D/t
c)
r=275/5.5=50 mph
t=D/r
t=350/50
t=7 hrs
d)
D=rt
50*4=200 mi
