Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
In each case, you are looking for time. We know speed is distance divided by time. Lets start with the speed formula.
speed = distance/time
Now we solve it for time. Multiply both sides by time and divide both sides by speed.
speed * time = distance
time = distance/speed
Time is distance divided by speed. In each problem, you have a speed and a distance. Divide the distance by the speed to to find the time.
1) speed = 44.1 km/h; distance = 150 km
time = distance/speed = 150 km/(44.1 km/h) =
= 3.401 hours = 3 hours + 0.401 hour * 60 min/hour = 3 hours 24 minutes
2) speed = 120 km/h; distance = 90 km
time = distance/speed = 90 km/(120 km/h) =
= 0.75 hours = 0.75 hour * 60 min/hour = 45 minutes
3) speed = 125 m/s; distance = 500 m
time = distance/speed = 500 m/(125 m/s) =
= 4 seconds
