Question

An airplane travel at a constant speed of 575 miles per hour.write and equation that can be used to determine the number of miles the airplane will travel in hours her equation is 575m determine why her equation does not correctly model the problem

Answer 1

`m = 575h`

Explanation:

Given

`Rate = 575 miles/hour`

Required

Determine the equation for the model

Represent the number of hours with h and the miles with m.

Using distance formula:

`Distance = Speed * Time`

In this case, it is:

`Miles = Rate * Hour`

So, we have:

`m = 575 * h`

`m = 575h`
