Answer:
[tex]m(d)=26\ d[/tex]
where [tex]m[/tex] represents miles driven
and [tex]d[/tex] represents number of days driven.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total distance driven in miles = 70,000
Average distance driven each day = 26 miles
Taking average as unit rate of miles covered per day.
∴ we can say the car covers 26 miles per day.
Using unitary method to find miles driven in [tex]d[/tex] days.
In 1 day miles driven = 26
In [tex]d[/tex] days miles driven = [tex]26\times d =26\ d[/tex]
So, to find [tex]m[/tex] miles driven the expression can be written as:
[tex]m(d)=26\ d[/tex]
