R=rate in distance per time
\n" ); document.write( "t = time
\n" ); document.write( "d = distance
\n" ); document.write( "Equation: \"Rt=d\".
\n" ); document.write( "Also \"t=d%2FR\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You can determine the rate if you know a time interval and the distance traveled in that time interval. Your first described sentence means, \"R=5%2Amiles%2F%282%2Ahours%29=highlight_green%282.5%29\" miles per hour.
