Solve the word problem.

The formula d = rt gives the distance traveled in time t at rate r. A bicyclist rides at a constant rate of 15 miles per hour. How many miles will he travel in 3.5 hours?

A.
4.3 miles

B.
18.5 miles

C.
23.3 miles

D.
52.5 miles <-----?

Answer 1

I think D. Because 15 x 3.5 = 52.5MPH

Answer 2

Yes, you have the formula:\[d=rt=15*3.5=52.5\]

Answer 3

It is MPH x H, so it gives 52.5 miles, not MPH @TheSmartestDerpAlive

Answer 6

Solve the word problem.

A group of roommates decide to split the cost of a new sofa. If s is the cost of the sofa and n is the number of roommates, the formula c=s/n determines each person’s share of the cost. If the new sofa costs $955 and 4 roommates live in the house, what is each person’s share?

A.
$382.00

B.
$238.75

C.
$221.25

D.
$95.50

Answer 7

I say B. Because the formula is C=s/n, so 955(Divided by)4=238.75

Answer 8

That is correct :)
