Respuesta :
The storm will reach you at 6:30 P.M
EXPLANATION
105 ÷ 35 = 3
3 x 1/2 hour = 1 1/2 hours
5:00pm + 1 1/2 hours = 6:30 P.M
Answer:
At 6:30 the storm will reach you.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
A storm has traveled 35 miles in 1/2 hour.
This can be written as:
35 miles = 1/2 hours
If it is currently 5:00 P.M. and the storm is 105 miles away from you, at what time will the storm reach you?
We can calculate the time take by storm if we multiply both side of the equation by 3.
Multiply both sides by 3.
35 × 3 miles = 1/2 × 3 hours
105 miles = 3/2 hours
or
105 miles = [tex]1\frac{1}{2}[/tex] hours
That means storm will take 1 hour and 30 minutes to reach you.
Currently its 5:00 P.M.
Therefore, 5:00+1:30=6:30
At 6:30 the storm will reach you.
