Hey there! :)

~ They give us some good information in this equation. Let's use it! This can be used to change "45 min" into ".75 hours".

~ Now, let's write an equation; "distance = speed * time."

~ 3(.75) + .5x = 6

~ 2.25 + .5x = 6

~ .5x = 6 - 2.25

~ .5x = 3.75

~ x = 3.75/.5

~ x = 7.5 km/hr
