A German Shepherd takes 4 hours to cover a distance, if it travels at a speed of 36mph. What should be its speed to cover the same distance in 3 hours

Respuesta :

Answer:

v₂ = 48 mph

Explanation:

We know that,

Speed = distance/time

A German Shepherd takes 4 hours to cover a distance, if it travels at a speed of 36mph.

We need to find the speed to cover the same distance in 3 hours.

[tex]\dfrac{v_1}{v_2}=\dfrac{t_2}{t_1}\\\\v_2=\dfrac{v_1t_1}{t_2}\\\\v_2=\dfrac{36\times 4}{3}\\\\v_2=48\ mph[/tex]

So, the new speed is 48 mph.
