Question 39118: John is traveling to a meeting that is 28 miles away. He needs to be there in 30 minutes. How fast does he need to go to make it to the meeting on time? Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Well distance = rate times time, or D = RT.
Here we need the rate, so
R = D/T
R = 28/(1/2)
R = 56 mph
