Answer:
d = 0.666t , where d is in miles and t is in minutes.
d = 39.94h, where d is in miles and h is in hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
A car travels [tex]2\frac{1}{3} = 2.33[/tex] miles in [tex]3\frac{1}{2} = 3.5[/tex] minutes at a constant speed.
Let the relation between the distance (d) traveled by car in miles after traveling t minutes is d = kt ......... (1)
Now, putting d = 2.33 miles and t = 3.5 minutes in the above equation we get,
2.33 = 3.5k
⇒ k = 0.666 (Approx.)
So, the equation (1) becomes d = 0.666t. (Answer)
Let us assume that the relation between the distance (D) traveled by car in miles after traveling h hours is d = Kh ............ (2)
Now, putting D = 2.33 miles and T = 3.5/60 = 0.058 hours in the above equation, we get
2.33 = 0.058K
⇒ K = 39.94
So, the equation (2) we get, d = 39.94h (Answer)
