Solve the formula \(d = rt\) for \(t\).

Find the time in hours it would take Van Dyk to travel 26.2 miles if his average speed was 18 miles per hour. Round to the nearest hundredth.

d = r t 26.2 = 18 t 18 26.2 ​ = 18 18 t ​ 1.45555555555556 = t
So, to round to the nearest hundredth, the answer is 1.5 hours.

To solve for time (t) when given the distance (d) and the rate or speed (r), use the formula t=d/r. By substituting the given values (d=26.2 miles, r=18 mph) and performing the calculation, we find that it takes approximately 1.46 hours, when rounded to the nearest hundredth. ;

To find time t using the formula d = r t , we divide distance d by rate r . For Van Dyk's trip of 26.2 miles at 18 miles per hour, the calculated time is approximately 1.46 hours. Therefore, it would take about 1.46 hours for the trip.
