if susan is going 46 miles and her average speed is 59 mph how far is susan going 8 hours later

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u missing something there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I really confused what am I missing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are u looking for distance or speed?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

distance

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and if the average speed is giving, the 46 miles is irrelevant...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't understand

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if average is 59 miles per hour, and she travels 8 hours, she would have traveled 8(59) miles or 472 miles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how about the 46 miles in 1 hour

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well that's the confusing part...u're already given the average speed, the 46 isn't needed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

unless there's something else, like her speed for the second hour, or third hour. or fourth or fifth...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no theres no second hour and so forth

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well 46 is excessive, unneeded

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it'll be 472

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problem
