Best Answer

If you are actually in your car, check the spedometer. That will tell you your instantaneous velocity; that is, distance traveled per second.

If this is a calculus question and you are given the function of your position with respect to time, simply take the derivative of your function and evaluate your derivative at the time at which you would like to determine your instantaneous velocity.

Alternatively and more unlikely, you can integrate your acceleration function and solve for your antiderivative based on an initial value given by the context of the problem.

How many tanks of gas would it take from Atlanta to Dallas?

The basic answer to your question is to divide the number of miles along the route from Atlanta to Dallas by the number of miles you get from a tank of gas. Easy! First, how far is it? Select a route and determine its length. If you've found WikiAnswers, you can find MapQuest. Second, determine your vehicle's fuel efficiency ('mpg,' or miles per gallon). Third, find out how much fuel your vehicle will hold. Multiply your vehicle's 'mpg' rating by its fuel capacity. The result is your vehicle's 'range.' Then divide the length of your route by your vehicle's 'range' to find how many tanks of gas it will take. Simple arithmetic!
