Sound travels about 343 meters per second. The function d(t) = 343t gives the distance d(t) in meters that sound travels in t seconds. How
far does sound travel in 8 seconds?
To find the distance sound travels in 8 seconds, we can simply plug in t = 8 into the function d(t) = 343t.
d(8) = 343 * 8
= 2744 meters
Therefore, sound travels 2744 meters in 8 seconds.
