Answer by oberobic(2304) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
d = r*t is the fundamental distance equation.
.
you need to know 2 of these to calculate the 3rd.
.
3 mph = r
2 mph = r
.
but unless you know 'd', you cannot calculate 't'
.
Say d = 9
.
9 = 3t
t = 9/3 = 3 hr : It takes 3 hr at 3 mph to go 9 miles
.
9 = 2t
t = 9/2 = 4 1/2 : It takes 4 1/2 hr at 2 mph to go 9 miles.
.
And so forth.
