\(\begin{array}{ccllll} miles&hours \\\hline\\ 93&1\frac{1}{2}\\ x&3\frac{1}{2} \end{array}\implies \cfrac{93}{x}=\cfrac{1\frac{1}{2}}{3\frac{1}{2}}\)

So were going to find out the velocity of the care in miles per hour. So take 93mi and divide it by 1.5 hours. This will produce a value in mi/second

OpenStudy (purple_pink):

haley?

OpenStudy (haleyelizabeth2017):

Yes ma'am? Sweetburger has it ;)

OpenStudy (purple_pink):

OpenStudy (haleyelizabeth2017):

OpenStudy (haleyelizabeth2017):

Lol just do 93/1.5

OpenStudy (purple_pink):

62

OpenStudy (haleyelizabeth2017):

Now what is 62*3.5?

OpenStudy (purple_pink):

62*3.5=217

OpenStudy (haleyelizabeth2017):

OpenStudy (purple_pink):
