Andre rode his bike at a constant speed.he rode 1 mile in 5 minutes.which of these equations represents the amount of time t(in minutes) that it takes him to ride a distance of d miles

Respuesta :

Given that Andre rode his bike at a constant speed.

Number of miles driven = 1 mile

Time taken to drive 1 mile = 5 minutes.

Then speed can be calculated using formula:

Speed = Distance / Time

[tex]Speed = 1 / 5[/tex]


Now we have to find the amount of time t (in minutes) taken by him to right distance d so we can again use same formula.


Speed = Distance / Time

or

Time = Distance / Speed

Plug the given values

[tex]Time = \frac{d}{\frac{1}{5}}[/tex]

t = 5d


Hence find answer will be equation t=5d.


Speed is the rate of change of distance over time.

The equation represents the amount of time t is [tex]\mathbf{t = 5 d}[/tex]

Speed is calculated using:

[tex]\mathbf{Speed = \frac{distance}{time}}[/tex]

When distance = 1 mile, and time = 5 minutes.

We have:

[tex]\mathbf{Speed = \frac{1}{5}}[/tex]

When distance = d, and time = t

We have:

[tex]\mathbf{Speed = \frac{d}{t}}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]\mathbf{Speed = \frac{1}{5}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\frac{d}{t} = \frac 15}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]\mathbf{t = 5 \times d}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{t = 5 d}[/tex]

Hence, the equation represents the amount of time t is [tex]\mathbf{t = 5 d}[/tex]
