Question

Amy and her family were traveling during their vacation. At point 1, her watch said 11:15. It took her 80 miles to get to Point 2 at 1:15. Based on this information, what is the unit rate (in miles per hour) of the car?

Answer 1

answer : 40mph

from 11:15->1:15 = 2 hours
the car drove 80 miles in 2 hours
80/2 = 40

the unit rate of the car was 40 miles per hour

Answer 2

40 miles per hour

Explanation:

From 11:15 to 1:15 it's 2 hours.

They drove 80 miles in 2 hours.

unit rate = speed = distance/time = (80 miles) / (2 hours) = 40 miles per hour
