If the fastest you can safely drive is 65 mi/h, what is the longest time you can stop for dinner if you must travel 541 mi in 9. 6 h total?.

Answer: 1.28 hours

Explanation:

To find how long he can stop, we must first find how long it will take him to complete the trip at the top speed without any stops.

Time without stops = [tex]\frac{541 miles}{65 miles/hour} = 8.32 hours (approximated)[/tex]

Since the driver has 9.6 hours total to complete the trip, the driver can stop for a maximum of 9.6 - 8.32 =  1.28 hours.

I hope that helps!
