Question 1057438
ms.thomas drove at a constant rate for 40 minutes. she drove 39 miles during that time. if distance is determined by the equation d=rt where r is the constant rate in miles per hour, what was ms.thomas constant rate?
----------
d = r*t (no "if" about it)
r = d/t
------
40 minutes = 2/3 hours.
-----
To find mi/hr, divide the miles by the hours.
