Question

A kind of lava , block lava , is moving away from the base of a volcano at a rate of 1.5 meters per day . If the lava continues to flow at this rate, how far away has the lava flowed from the base if the volcano in 30 days

Answer 1

45 m.

Explanation:

Given:

Rate of the lava flow,rt = 1.5 m/day.

Time of the flow, t = 30 days.

Distance of the flow, d = rate of the flow * time of the flow

d = rt * t

= 1.5 * 30

= 45 m from the base of the volcano.
