Yes
distance= speed x time
Distance = speed x time
The basic formula for these kinds of questions is "Rate X Time = Distance". In this case you know the distance and the rate, so you want to solve for time (i.e. "How long") so the first step is to rewrite the equation so it's solving for time instead of distance. If you divide (the opposite of multiply since the left side of the equation is multiplying by Rate) both sides by R (i.e. Rate) the new version of the equation becomes T = Distance/Rate Now replace the variables you know (from the original story problem). T = 400/60 T = 6.6666 hours There are 60 minutes in an hour so... 6.6666 X 60 = 399.6 minutes
== I'm pretty sure the formula for distance is: D== rt (Distance= rate x time) == The formula for distance is: speed x time.
The formula is Distance=Rate x Time (or distance equals rate multiplied by time). When you take this into account, you can manipulate it to solve for rate or time instead of distance. In other words, you could rewrite it as Rate= Distance/Time (rate equals distance divided by time) and Time= Distance/Rate (time equals distance divided by rate) in case they ask for what the Rate or Time is instead of Distance.
Since distance is rate multiplied by the amount of time at such a rate, this can be modeled D=rt
the distance is d=rt distance = rate times time.
d=rt Distance=Rate (Speed) x Time This equation can be used to find Distance, Rate, and Time.
Time equals Distance divided by rate
time=distance/speed(known as rate)
rate = distance / time (r= d/t)
V=D/T This means volisity = distance/time
Our formula is Distance = Rate * Time Distance = 0.1 miles Rate = 70 mph Time = unknown Solve formula for Time Distance/Rate = Time So, 0.1 miles/70 mph or 1/700 hours. Approximately 5.14 seconds
D = distance R = rate T = Time Therefore, the formula is D = R * T D= velocity x time interval
Generally: RATE = DISTANCE / TIME -or- DISTANCE = RATE * TIME -or- TIME = DISTANCE / RATE qed
