Question 1134638: A car travels at uniform speed. At 2 pm it is at a distance of 180km and at 6 pm it is at 360km. Using section formula find at what distance it will reach 12 midnights Answer by ikleyn(52921) (Show Source):
In 4 hours from 2 pm to 6 pm the car covers (360-180) = 180 kilometers - hence, its rate is = 45 kilometers per hour.
At 12 midnight it will reach the distance 360 + 6 hours * 45 kilometers per hour = 360 + 6*45 =
360 + 270 = 630 kilometers from the starting point. ANSWER
