Traveling at 65 mph how many feet can you travel in 22 minutes?

Sagot :

If you are travelling at 65 mph, you have to think of it as if you are moving at a constant speed.  By dividing 65 by 60, you are calculating how many miles you are moving each minute.  In doing so, you can calculate that you are moving at 1.083333 miles each minute.  That's approximately 5720 feet per minute.  (This is calculated by multiplying 1.083333 by 5280 (the number of feet in a mile)).  5720 x 22 minutes, you will have traveled 125,840 feet.

The first thing we must do for this case is to make a change of units in the given speed.

For this, we use the following conversions:

[tex] 1 mile = 5280 feet

1 hour = 60 minutes
[/tex]

Then we apply the transformation of units.

[tex] (65)(\frac{miles}{hours}) * (5280)(\frac{feet}{miles}) * (\frac{1}{60})\frac{hours}{min} = 5720 \frac{feet}{min}
[/tex]

Then, by definition, we have to:

[tex] d = v * t
[/tex]

Where,

d: distance traveled

v: speed

t: time

Substituting values for t = 22 minutes we have:

[tex] d = (5720) * (22)

d = 125840 feet
[/tex]

Answer:

The distance traveled in 22 minutes of travel is:

[tex] d = 125840 feet [/tex]
