A hot-air balloon flew at 10 miles per hour. Using the variable h, write and solve a multiplication equation to find how many hours the balloon traveled if it covered a distance of 70 miles.

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]h=\frac{70\ miles}{10\ miles/hr}[/tex]

[tex]h=7\ hours[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed at which hot-air balloon flew = 10 miles/hr

Distance covered by balloon = 70 miles

Number of hours for which the balloon traveled [tex]h[/tex] =[tex]\frac{Distance}{Speed}[/tex]

So, [tex]h=\frac{70\ miles}{10\ miles/hr}[/tex]

∴ [tex]h=7\ hours[/tex]
