Answer:

[tex]\textsf{1)} \quad t=\dfrac{48}{r}[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{2)} \quad \sf 2.4\:hours=2\:hours\:24\:minutes[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1

[tex]\boxed{\sf Time=\dfrac{Distance}{Speed}}[/tex]

Given:

  • Time = t hours
  • Distance = 48 km
  • Speed = r km/h

Substitute the given values into the formula:

[tex]\implies t=\dfrac{48}{r}[/tex]

Part 2

Substitute r = 20 km/h into the derived equation from part 1 and solve for t:

[tex]\implies t=\dfrac{48}{20}=2.4\: \sf hours[/tex]

Note: 2.4 hours = 2 hours 24 minutes
