The equation for the faster car's motion can be written as:
distance = speed x time
Since we want to represent the motion of the faster car, we can use the information given for Road 2. The car can go 90 miles in 4 hours, so the speed of the car can be calculated as:
speed = distance / time = 90 miles / 4 hours = 22.5 miles per hour
Now we can write the equation for the faster car's motion:
distance = 22.5 miles/hour x time
Therefore, the equation is:
distance = 22.5t
Two equations are written to express how far a car can go when driving on
different roads. On Road 1, the car can go 60 miles in 2 hours. On Road 2, the
car can go 90 miles in 4 hours. Write an equation where is the distance in
miles and is the time in hours to represent the motion of the faster car.
