Question

my family left at 4am this morning on a trip to the mountains if the car average for 60 miles per hour for 600 miles what time would they arrive at their destination ​

Answer 1

Answer:

They would arrive at their destination at 2pm.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

In which v is the velocity, d is the distance and t is the time.

We first have to find how long the trip takes.

60 miles per hour, so $v = 60$

600 miles, so $d = 600$

Then

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

$60 = \frac{600}{t}$

$60t = 600$

$t = \frac{600}{60}$

$t = 10$

The trip lasts 10 hours. Your family left at 4am. When they arrive.

10 hours after 4 am is 10 + 4 = 14 hours, which in the am/pm scale is 2 pm.

So they would arrive at their destination at 2pm.
