John took 8 hours to drive 385 miles. He believes that at this same rate he will need at least 17 hours to drive 1000 miles which is the best estimate of the total amount of time he will need to drive 1000 miles A- 17

B- 19

C-21

D-15

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

give data

time= 8hours

distance=385mile

speed=?

Step two:

let us solve for the speed

Speed= distance/time

Speed=385/8

speed=48.125miles per hour

Step three:

let's find the time taken to cover 1000mile at the speed of 48.125 mi per hour

speed=distance/time

time=distance/speed

time=1000/48.125

time=20.779hours

approximately 21 hours

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥

hope this !
