Use the formula Distance = rate ⋅ time. If Renee drives 120 miles at a constant speed of 60 mph, how long will it take? (Be sure to include units.)

Respuesta :

Dividing the given formula by the rate we get:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{\text{Distance}}{rate}=\frac{rate\cdot time}{rate}, \\ \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{rate}}=\text{time.} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Substituting Distance=120mile and rate=60miles/h we get:

[tex]\text{time}=\frac{120mi}{60\frac{mi}{h}}=\frac{120h}{60}=2h[/tex]

Answer: 2h.
