Answer 1

Bob travels to ocean with an average speed of 50 miles per hour 50mi/h.

The distance from the Bob's house to ocean is 350 miles.

In order to calcuale how long will Bob travel from his house to ocean, you se the following formula:

t = v x s

t: time

v: Bob's average speed = 50mi/h

s: distance Bob's house - Ocean = 350mi

By replacing you obtain:

t
