Answer:
It'll take 25 hours to get to the auto shop
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Distance = 5 miles
Speed =1056 feet per hour
Required
How long will it take to the auto shop
This can be solved using Speed's formula;
[tex]Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]
Substitute values for Speed and Distance
[tex]\frac{1056 ft}{hr} = \frac{5 miles}{Time}[/tex]
1 mile = 5280 feet;
So:
[tex]\frac{1056 ft}{hr} = \frac{5 * 5280 ft}{Time}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1056 ft}{hr} = \frac{26400ft}{Time}[/tex]
Cross Multiply
[tex]Time * 1056ft = 26400ft * hr[/tex]
Divide both sides by 1056ft
[tex]Time * \frac{1056ft}{1056ft} = \frac{26400ft * hr}{1056ft}[/tex]
[tex]Time = \frac{26400ft * hr}{1056ft}[/tex]
[tex]Time = 25hr[/tex]
Hence, it'll take 25 hours to get to the auto shop
