Algebra.Com's Answer #573666 by macston(5194)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The formula given d=rt is distance=rate x time \n" ); document.write( "The rate is given: r=25 mph and the distance: d=1246.5 mi \n" ); document.write( "First solve the equation for time: \n" ); document.write( "d=rt divide each side by r \n" ); document.write( "d/r=rt/r \n" ); document.write( "d/r=t so time is distance divided by rate \n" ); document.write( "Solve given for time \n" ); document.write( "t=d/r=1246.5 mi/25 mi/hr=49.86 hrs \n" ); document.write( "To get distance at any given time: \n" ); document.write( "d=rt in this case \n" ); document.write( "d=25mph t or distance is the rate (25 mph) times time (in hours) \n" ); document.write( "We can graph the equation: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "but I'm not sure what kind of table you are looking for. \n" ); document.write( " |
