Question

You have already run 4 miles. If you run at a speed of 8 miles per hour, how many total miles will you run in 2 more hours? Choose the correct equation and solution to this problem.

Answer 1

Answer:

20 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not sure if that is exactly how you solve it but

If its

8x+4 as the equation and x is the number of hours run

the total number of miles run should be 20 miles

8(2)+4=20

Answer 2

Answer:

20 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

miles already covered = 4

rate of speed = 8miles / hour

miles to be covered = 8 miles/hr× 2 hr= 16 miles ( because distance is velocity × time)

total miles covered = 16 + 4 = 20 miles.
