16
Given
Time
Speed
Unknown
Distance
Equation
Distance = Speed x Time
Substitute
Time = 90 s
Speed = 6 m/s
Solve
Distance = 6 m/s x 90 s = 540 m
How far (in meters) will you travel in 90 seconds
running at a rate of 6 m/s?

Multiple Choice
How much time does it take a bird flying at a speed of 45 miles per hour to travel a distance of 1,800 miles?
40 m/s
40 hours
0.025 hours
.07 m
19
Given
Speed
Distance
Unknown
Time
Equation
Time = Distance / Speed
Substitute
Distance = 1800 mi
Speed = 45 mph
Time = 1800 mi / 45 mph
Solve
Time = 1800 mi / 45 mph = 40 h
How much time does it take a bird flying at a speed of
45 miles per hour to travel a distance of 1,800 miles?
