Question

The davis family traveled 35 miles in 1/2 hour if it is currently 2:00pm any the family destination is 245 miles away at what time will they arrive explain

Answer 1

The distance traveled by Davis family = 35 miles

Time taken to cover the distance =
`(1)/(2)` hour

Speed = Distance
`/` Time

Speed =
`35 / (1)/(2)`

Speed =
`35 * 2`

So, speed = 70 miles/hour.

At 2:00 pm, the family destination was 245 miles away.

So, the number of hours, when the family was 245 miles away =
`245 / 70`

= 3.5 hours

So, after 3.5 hours, that is at 5:30 pm, the Davis family will be 245 miles away.
