Driving at the speed limit, it takes you 2 hours to drive your delivery truck 100 miles. assuming you drive at the same speed, how many hours will it take you to drive 300 miles
speed is the rate of change of distance. the speed of the truck for the 100 miles within 2 hours is speed = 100 miles travelled / 2 hours taken speed = 50 miles/hour assuming that the driver drives at 50 miles/hr the time taken to drive 50 miles is - 1 hour therefore to drive 300 miles - it takes - 300 miles / 50 miles/hr the time taken is - 6 hours it takes 6 hours to drive for 300 miles
