Answer:

33 hours or equivalently: 1980 minutes

Explanation:

Use the formula for movement under constant velocity, as the velocity equal the distance traveled divided by the time it took, and solve for the unknown time (t):

[tex]v=\frac{distance}{t} \\t=\frac{distance}{v} \\t=\frac{8.25\,\,km}{0.5 \,\,km/h} \\t = 33 \,\,h[/tex]

which can also be given in minutes as : 33 x 60 = 1980 minutes
