Answer :
Using the relation between velocity, distance and time, it is found that t = 3 hours.
What is the relation between velocity, distance and time?
Velocity is distance divided by time, hence:
[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]
For this problem, the parameters are given as follows:
d = 15 miles, v = 5 mph
Hence the time in hours is found as follows:
[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]
[tex]5 = \frac{15}{t}[/tex]
5t = 15
t = 15/5
t = 3 hours.
