What is a linear equation?
A linear equation represents an equation that has one or multiple variables with the highest power of the variable is 1.
Given, the distance between point A and point B is 162 miles.
The time taken by the car to reach point B from point A is
[tex]= (10:30) hours - (7:30) hours\\= (3) hours[/tex]
The average speed of the car is
[tex]= \frac{162}{3}[/tex] miles/hour
[tex]= 54[/tex] miles/hour
