@Awolflover1 Can you help? ;u;

Answer 5

this is a rate problem. you have a rate of travel: \[\frac{55\text { miles}}{1\text{ hour}}\]

If you go 55 miles every hour, and you need to travel 310 miles, does your guess of 6 minutes seem reasonable? 1 hour = 60 minutes.

Answer 6

Where motion is concerned, a common formula is (distance) = (rate) * (time).

In this particuloar problem you are given the distance and the rate; your job is to find the time elapsed during this trip. Solve the above equation for time, and then plug in the given values for "distance" and "time."
