Problema Solution

Rene is going to the lake to visit some friends. If the lake is 60 miles away, and Rene is driving at 40 miles per hour the entire time, how long will it take her to get to the lake?*

Answer provided by our tutors

let


d = 60 mi the distance of the travel

v = 40 mph the speed of Rene

t = the time of the travel to the lake


since v = d/t we have t = d/v


t = 60/40


t = 1.5 hr


Rene will get to the lake in 1.5 hours.
