Speed-Distance-Time Problems
Problems involving motion are generally solved using the speed formula \(s = \frac{d}{t}\) , where \(s\) is the speed, \(d\) is the distance, and \(t\) is the time. A good strategy for these types of problems is to define and organize expressions for \(s\), \(d\), and \(t\) in a table, as shown in Example 4.
