Given the statement:
Alicia drove at a constant speed and traveled 182.4 miles in 3 hours
Determine how many miles would Alicia travel in 11 hours at the same speed.
Formula for velocity:
v = d/t
d = tv
t = d/v
d = distance
t = time
v = velocity
Solution:
Find first the velocity of Alicia.
v = d/t
v = 182.4 miles/3 hours
v = 60.8 miles/hour
Substitute the value of the velocity and 11 hours to the formula for the distance.
d = tv
d = (11 hours)(60.8 miles/hour)
d = 668.8
Final answer:
Alicia will travel 668.8 miles in 11 hours.
