An aircraft flies at an average speed of 500 miles per hour. The expression 500t gives the distance traveled by the aircraft in t hours. Find the distance traveled by the aircraft in 8 hours The distance traveled by the aircraft in 8 hours is

Distance = 500 t

This equation means if we multiple 500 by the given time, we can determine the distance traveled.

Given in the question.

t = 8 hours

So we can substitute 8 into the equation.

Distance = 500 x 8

Distance = 4000 miles

Therefore, it traveled 4000 miles in 8 hours.

step-by-step explanation:

no, her answer is not correct.   we square the lengths of all sides and then determine whether the pythagorean theorem holds here:

9² + 15² = 306.   this is not equal to the square of the longest side ( that square being 395.   answer c is correct.
