Amelia is traveling from Los Angeles, California, to Mesa, Arizona. The total distance she will drive is 388 miles. Amelia would like to get to Mesa in approximately 7 hours. She is wondering at what speed she will have to travel in order to make that happen. Using the formula d=vt

Question

, rearrange the formula to highlight the quantity of interest.(1 point)
v=___/___

Answer 1

To rearrange the formula \( d = vt \) to highlight the speed \( v \), we can solve for \( v \) by dividing both sides of the equation by \( t \):

\[ v = \frac{d}{t} \]

In this case, we can express it as:

\[ v = \frac{d}{t} \]

So, filling in the blanks, we have:

v = d/t
