Question

A family goes on a trip. They drive at 65 mph. Write an equation using two variables to show the relationship between the number of hours driven, h , and the total amount of miles driven, m . Responses h=65m h is equal to 65 m - no response given m=65+h m is equal to 65 plus h - no response given m=65/h m is equal to 65 over h - no response given m=65h

Answer 1

The correct equation to show the relationship between the number of hours driven (h) and the total amount of miles driven (m) at a speed of 65 mph is:

\[ m = 65h \]

This means that the total miles driven (m) is equal to the speed (65 mph) multiplied by the number of hours driven (h).
