Question

check here for instructional material to complete this problem. if a car travels at a constant speed of r miles per hour for t hours, it will travel rt miles. evaluate rt for r = 61 and t = 7. what does your result mean in this situation? select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box to complete your choice. (simplify your answer.) a. the value rt = is the distance that the car will travel at a constant speed of 61 miles per hour for 7 hours. b. the value rt = is the time for which the car will travel 7 miles at a constant speed of 61 miles per hour.

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute values

Given $r = 61$ and $t=7$, substitute into $rt$.
$rt=61\times7$

Step2: Calculate the product

$61\times7 = 427$

In the context of the problem, the formula $rt$ represents the distance traveled when $r$ is speed and $t$ is time.

Answer:

A. The value $rt = 427$ is the distance that the car will travel at a constant speed of 61 miles per hour for 7 hours.
