5hours
6hours
7hours
10hours
12hours

Respuesta :

Answer:

10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a proportion where x is the number of hours to travel 5000 miles

[tex]\frac{1000}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5000}{x}[/tex]

Cross multiply and solve for x

1000x = 10000

x = 10

So, it will take 10 hours.
