Problema Solution
A car is traveling at a rate of 90 kilometers per hour. What is the cars rate in miles per hour? How many miles will the car travel in 5 hours? in your computation, assume that 1 mile is equale to 1.6 kilometers. Do not round your answer
Answer provided by our tutors
1 mile = 1.6 kilometers
1 km = 1/1.6 miles
v = 90 km/h the rate of the car
d = the distance traveled
t = 5 hr
What is the cars rate in miles per hour?
90km = 90*(1/1.6) miles = 90/1.6 miles = 56.25 miles
v = 56.25 mph
the cars rate in miles per hour is 56.25 miles per hour.
How many miles will the car travel in 5 hours?
since speed=distance/time => distance = speed*time
d = v*t
d = 56.25*5
d = 281.25 miles
in 5 hours the car will travel 281.25 miles.
