Question 196973: The distance traveled at a constant speed is directly proportional to the time of travel. If Olivia traveled 112 miles in 3.5 hours, how many miles will Olivia travel in 8.9 hours at the same constant speed? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The distance traveled at a constant speed is directly proportional to the time of travel. If Olivia traveled 112 miles in 3.5 hours, how many miles will Olivia travel in 8.9 hours at the same constant speed?
-----------------
Proportion:
x/8.9 = 112/3.5
---
x = 8.9(112/3.5)
x = 284.8 miles
