Satia drives for 4 hours from a to b. angelique drives at half the speed of safia. find how many hours angelique takes to drive from a to b

Sagot :

Angelique takes 8 hours to drive from a to b.

What is the concept of speed, distance and time?

How quickly something or someone is moving is indicated by their speed. If you know how far something travels and how long it takes, you can calculate their average speed. Speed equals distance  x times time, according to the speed formula. Knowing the units for distance and time will help you determine what the units are for speed.

According to given Information:

let us assume distance from a to b be x units.

let us assume speed of vehicle be y units/hour.

For case -1

For Satia, speed=y units time=4 hours we know the formula of distance is:

     distance=speed × time distance=(y× 4) units               -------------------(1)

For case - 2

        Angelique :speed=y / 2 units time=?

We know the formula of distance is:

Distance=speed × time distance=(y/2)× time            -------------------(2)

We can see that distance in both cases is equal,

So compare case (1) ad (2) ,

We get  (y× 4)=(y/2)× time

On rearranging ,

Time= (4×2) hours=8 hours

hence,

Angelique takes 8 hours to cover the distance from a to b.
