Question

A cheetah runs at a speed of 54 miles for every hour. If the distance traveled, in miles, is d and time, in hours, is t, which equation shows the relationship between d and t?

d = 54t
t = 54d
d = 54 + t
t = 54 + d @mathstudent55 @BloomLocke367 @triciaal @mathmath333 @kevindragonlord

Answer 1

\(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} \normalsize \text{use the formula}\hspace{.33em}\\~\\
speed=\dfrac{distance}{time}\hspace{.33em}\\~\\
\end{align}}\)

Answer 2

plug in
\(\large \color{black}{\begin{align}
speed=54\quad miles\\
distance=d\\
times =t
\end{align}}\)

Answer 3

Speed can be given in the units of miles per hour.
Miles per hour means "miles divided by hour."
Since miles are used for a distance, and hours are used for time, you can conclude that speed is equal to distance divided by time, or
speed = distance/time, or
speed = d/t

If you multiply both sides of this equation by time, and you replace speed with 54 mph, whioch answer do you get?

Answer 4

after plugging in u get this

\(\large \color{black}{\begin{align}
54=\dfrac{d}{t}\hspace{.33em}\\~\\
\end{align}}\)

now multily \(t\) on both sides
