Let's use the variables 𝑑 and 𝑡, where 𝑑 represents the distance the elephant travels and 𝑡 represents the time it takes to travel that distance.
The formula for speed is:
𝑠 = 𝑑/𝑡
Here, 𝑠 represents the speed (in miles per hour), 𝑑 represents the distance traveled (in miles), and 𝑡 represents the time taken to travel that distance (in hours).
We know that the African elephant can run at a speed of 15 mph. So, we can plug in 𝑠 = 15 in the above equation and get:
15 = 𝑑/𝑡
To solve for 𝑑, we can multiply both sides by 𝑡:
𝑑 = 15𝑡
So, the equation that shows the relationship between the distance the elephant travels and the time it takes to travel that distance is 𝑑 = 15𝑡.
an african elephant can run 15 mph write and equation using two variables to show the relationship between the how many hours the elephant runs
