Expert Solution
Step 1
Given Information about the distance traveled by the ship in time t-
time (hours) | distance (miles) |
0.5 | 12.5 |
1 | 25 |
1.5 | 37.5 |
Also it is given that ship travels at a constant rate.
The above table in word form tells us the following information-
Distance traveled by the ship in 0.5 hours = 12.5 miles.
Distance traveled by the ship in 1 hour = 25 miles.
Distance traveled by the ship in 1.5 hours = 37.5 miles.
