A plane is flying at a speed of 150 miles per hour. The pilot plans to fly at this speed for
the next 160 miles, plus or minus 25 miles. Write an absolute value equation to find the
minimum and maximum number of hours the plane will travel at that speed.

Maximum time = 0.914 hour , Minimum time = 1.28 hour

Speed is determined by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken to travel it. It gives the amount of time it took to travel a certain distance divided by the distance traveled.

Speed is inversely correlated with time and directly correlated with distance. Hence, Speed X  time equals distance, and

Time is calculated as Distance / Speed; as speed increases, time decreases and vice versa.

Distance = speed  x  time

Maximum speed =  150 +25

                              = 175 miles/ hour

Minimum speed = 150 - 25

                              = 125

Distance = 160 miles

Maximum time = 160/175

                              = 0.914 hour

Minimum time = 160/125

                           = 1.28 hour
