Which of the following best defines the quantities that should be measured to find Andy's driving speed?

Question

The quantity of time measured in hours depends on the quantity of distance measures in miles.***

The quantity of distance measures in miles depends on the quantity of time measured in hours.

The quantity of time measured in minutes depends on the quantity of speed measured in feet.

The quantity of speed measured in feet depends on the quantity of time measured in minutes.

Answer 1

speed = distance/time

Answer 2

So is my answer wrong then?

Answer 3

I think so. speed depends on time and distance. None of the answers really is complete, but they all say something depends on something else.

For a given distance, speed depends on the time it takes to travel that distance.

So, if you want to determine Andy's speed, clearly you can't figure it out unless you know the distance and time involved.

Answer 4

oh, and speed is not measured in feet. Distance is measured in feet. Speed is measured in

feet per second
miles per hour
or something else like that

Answer 5

So I could change my answer to C if I wanted to. What would you say the best answer for this question would be?

Answer 6

I like D!
