Question

A car travels at a speed of
'5'km/hrfrom Bhopal to Indore. After
the journey of 3hrs Indore is still 65
kms away. Express the distance from
Bhopal to Indore using variable 5​

Answer 1

Answer:

A linear equation is in the form :

y = mx + c

Let the total distance be S and the time be t.

In this case our y will be S and our x will be t since it is the changing variable.

Both m and c are constants.

In our case m is the speed since it is the one attached to the independent variable.

C is the constant which is the distance already covered.

Distance already covered is :

5 × 3 = 15km

The time it will take to cover the remaining distance is :

65 / 5= 13hrs

The equation thus :

S = 5t + 15

Where t ≤ 13
