B. 2.7 miles
C. 4.5 miles
D. 270 miles

Answer 1

Use the d =rt formula

d = 6* 45
d = 270

Answer 2

answer is D

Answer 3

Kyrie look at the problem and understand it lol No way he could of ran 270 miles in 45 mins :-D

Answer 4

He is only going 6 mile per hour and he does not even run a whole hour

Answer 5

Velocity is defined as displacement divided the given time interval.\[v = \dfrac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}\]Therefore, solving for displacement, we have:\[\Delta x = v \Delta t\]Plug in known values, tagging on the appropriate conversion factors (the conversion factors don't affect the validity of the answer as their value is effectively 1):\[\Delta x = \left(6\dfrac{\text{miles}}{\text{hour}}\right)\left(45 \text{ minutes}\right)\left(\dfrac{\text{1 hour}}{\text{60 minutes}}\right)=4.5 \text{ miles}\]

Answer 6

Does that make sense?

Answer 7

Here is the formula you probably are using in school for this problem

d = r * t
d = 6 * 45/60
d = 6 * 3/4
d = 4.5

Remember to understand the problem and watch others answers because they could be wrong :-) The correct answer if 4.5
