It will take adam four hours to drive to disney park, and 2.5 times less time if driving 45 mph faster. what is the distance adam should cover to get to the park?

120 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The speed is equal to the distance divided by the time

Let

s> the speed in mph

d> the distance in miles

t > the time in hours

s=d/t

solve for the distance

d=s*t

It will take Adam four hours to drive to Disney Park

s=x mph

t=4 h

substitute

d=4x > equation A

It will take Adam 2.5 times less time if driving 45 mph faster

so

s=(x+45) mph

t=4/2.5=1.6 h

substitute

d=1.6(x+45) > equation B

equate equation A and equation B

4x=1.6(x+45)

Solve for x

4x=1.6x+72

4x-1.6x=72

2.4x=72

x=30 mph

Find the distance d

d=4x > d=4(30)=120 miles

109 is the nearest whole number/final answer! : )

2nd one in the first row is correct
