I am trying to help my son with this applied math 10 problem and I need some help.
\n" ); document.write( "A car is travelling at 60 km/h West away from Vancouver. It is 200 km away from Vancouver after 3 hours. Write an equation which models this situation. Use the equation to determine the distance away from Vancouver after 8 hrs.
\n" ); document.write( "m = _______________ (x,y) = ( )
\n" ); document.write( "=====================================
\n" ); document.write( "1st: Draw the picture
\n" ); document.write( "2nd: Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "distance = rate * time
\n" ); document.write( "d(t) = r*t
\n" ); document.write( "After t hours the car will have gone 60*t km
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "d(3) = 60*3 = 180 km
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "d(8) = 60*8 = 480 km
