Explanation: v = d/t v = speed d = distance t = time (physics equation but it works here as well)
First, find speed of boat. 1. v = d/t 2. v = 413/9 3. v = 45.9mph
Last, find time it’ll take for boat to travel 462 miles at 45.9mph. 1. v = d/t 2. 45.9 = 462/t (multiply time “t” on both sides) 3. 45.9t = 462 (divide both sides by 45.9) 4. t = 10hrs
Therefore it’ll take 10 hours for boat to travel 462 miles at 45.9mph. Hope this helps :)
