Ared car usb traveling 55mph for 206.35 miles how long does it take the car to arrive at is destination

Hi there!

"mph" stands for "miles per hour".

This means that the car travels 55 miles in 1 hour.

To find your answer, you'll need to use the cross product method :

55 miles → 1 hour

206.35 → x

(1 × 206.35) ÷ 55 = x

206.35 ÷ 55 = x

206.35 ÷ 55 = 3.751818...

206.35 ÷ 55 ≈ 3.75

0.75 × 60 = 45 minutes

Your answer is: It takes 3 hours and 45 minutes for the car to arrive at its destination.

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

step-by-step explanation:

this can be solved first with pythagorean theorem, which tells us to square both legs of the triangle and sum it. this will be equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

the hypotenuse is the side "opposite" the 90 degree angle, which is x.

so we can write using pythagorean theorem,

simplifying:

to further simplify this radical, we need to use the property
