Question

can someone help please?

Answer 1

Toni is riding her bicycle at a constant speed of 18 kilometers per hour. At this rate, how many hours will it take her to ride 24 kilometers? Use the distance formula d = rt.
a. 1 1/3
b. 1 1/2
c. 1 2/3
d. 1 3/4

Answer 2

Well, plug the numbers in the equation. Distance is 24k, rate is 18k, time is 60 minutes.

Answer 3

Well, I take that back, time isn't 60 minutes, I was getting ahead of myself.

Answer 4

Here, I'm going to tell you the answer and maybe this helps, okay? And I WAS right about time, it's 60 mins.

Answer 5

The answer is A.

Answer 6

So you need to multiply the correct time with your rate (18) to equal the distance (24)

Answer 7

Answer 9

You could, but the question was use d =rt

Answer 10

Answer 11

I didn't want to do it a different way, in case they needed to write out their work. But the way you did it is perfectly fine as well.
