A girl's basketball team is playing in the Texas state championship game. They are going 560 miles from El Paso to San Antonio. Their bus yep travels at an average speed of 60 miles per hour.
A. Suppose the bus travels at an hour almost steady speed throughout the trip. Make a table and a graph of time and distance data for the bus.
I can much help making a graph on this. distance = speed*time, so on a distance time graph, you will have a sloping line upwards..
64 miles per hr
For their class trip, Hector and his classmates traveled 416 miles in 8 hours.
How many miles per hour did they travel?
To create a table and a graph of time and distance data for the bus in this scenario, we can use the formula:
Distance = Speed × Time
First, let's create a table:
| Time (hours) | Distance (miles) |
|--------------|------------------|
| 0 | 0 |
| 1 | 60 |
| 2 | 120 |
| 3 | 180 |
| 4 | 240 |
| 5 | 300 |
| 6 | 360 |
| 7 | 420 |
| 8 | 480 |
| 9 | 540 |
| 10 | 600 |
In this table, the time (in hours) and corresponding distance (in miles) are listed. The distance is calculated by multiplying the given speed of 60 miles per hour with the time.
Now, let's create a graph using this data:
On the x-axis, plot the time (hours), and on the y-axis, plot the distance (miles). The data points will be represented by dots and will connect them to form a line.
Below is the visual representation of the graph:

Note: The graph represents the bus's distance from El Paso (start) to San Antonio (destination) as time progresses.
