To predict how far the car would travel in 10 hours, we'll first need to know the speed at which the car is traveling. For this example, let's say the car is moving at a constant speed of \(60\) miles per hour (mph).
Step 1: Calculate the distance traveled in 8 hours.
Using the formula for distance: \[ \text{Distance} = \text{Speed} \times \text{Time} \]
For 8 hours: \[ \text{Distance} = 60 , \text{mph} \times 8 , \text{hours} = 480 , \text{miles} \]
Step 2: Predict the distance traveled in 10 hours.
Using the same formula: \[ \text{Distance} = 60 , \text{mph} \times 10 , \text{hours} = 600 , \text{miles} \]
Conclusion:
If the car travels at a constant speed of \(60\) mph, it would travel 600 miles in 10 hours.
If you have a different speed in mind, you can simply replace the speed in the calculations above to get the corresponding distance for 10 hours.
