A roller coaster travels at an average speed of 61feet per second for 3118 feet. they reach a maxium speed of 187 feet per second. Write on equation where x represents the total time the roller coaster is in motion. Use the formula d=rt.

OpenStudy (stormfire1):

\[Distance = rate * time\] \[3118ft = 61 ft/s * t\] Solve for t to get: \[time = \frac{3118ft}{61 ft/s}= 51 s\]The 187 ft/s is not needed.
