Tony is training to run a marathon. He has already run 2 miles today and is running additional miles at 6 miles per hour. Write an equation that represents the miles, M, that Tony runs, where h represents the number of hours
M = Distance in miles
Would assume that h is the number of hours to run the additional 6 miles per hour.
Additional distance = speed time = 6 h = 6h
Total distance, M = 2 + 6h
Here is your answer:
h is the number of hours to run the 6 miles per hour....
Using this formula:
\(distance = speed \times time = 6 \times h = 6h
\)
\(M =
Distance
in
miles
\)
Which would equal "\(M = 6h + 2\)."
Hope this helps!
