Question

Solve for d.

● Frank drove his car at an average speed of 43 mph for 2.5 hours.
Using your new equation, determine the distance, d, Frank drove.
Show all the steps.

Answer 1

Frank drove a total of about 107 miles.

Explanation:

Okay...

2.5 hours at 43 miles per hour.

43 x 2 = 86

and for .50 we can say half which is about 21 or 22 miles.

So,

86 + 21 = 107

D = 107

Answer 2

107.5 miles

Explanation:

We can use the formula d = rt (distance = rate · time) to find the distance travelled.

We know that,

r = 43 mph

t = 2.5 hrs

Plug these values into the formula to get your answer.

43 · 2.5 = 107.5 miles
