QuestionA truck goes 441 miles at 63 mph. Use $d = r t$ to find the travel time in hours.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The truck travels at a constant speed of63 miles per hour. . The total distance the truck travels is441 miles.
3. The formula for distance is $d = r t$ , where $d$ is distance, $r$ is rate of speed, and $t$ is time spent traveling.

STEP 2

We need to find the time spent traveling, which we can do by rearranging the formula for distance to solve for $t$ .
$t = \frac{d}{r}$

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for the distance and rate of speed into the equation.
$t = \frac{441\, miles}{63\, miles/hour}$

STEP 4

Calculate the time spent traveling.
$t = \frac{441}{63} =7\, hours$ The truck will be traveling for7 hours.
