Find the distance traveled by a train at 135 miles per hour for 40 minutes

The train traveled 90 miles in 40 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

40 minutes is of an hour. Because the speed is in miles/hour, we just need to multiple the distance by the time in hours to get the new distance.

135 × = 90 miles

The train traveled 90 miles in 40 minutes.

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the constant of variation is

y= kx

divide each side by x

y/x =kx/x

y/x =k

we know a and y

1.   y/x = k

4/1 =4

check the other values to make sure they are the same

8/2 = 4   12/3 =4   and 16/4 =4  

the constant of variation is 4

2.   y/x = k

3/1 =3

check the other values to make sure they are the same

6/2 = 3   9/3 =3   and 12/4 =3  

the constant of variation is 3
