To determine how far a car goes in 30 seconds at a speed of 29 meters per second, we can use the equation for distance, which is:
[tex]\[ d = s \cdot t \][/tex]
Where:
- [tex]\( d \)[/tex] is the distance
- [tex]\( s \)[/tex] is the speed
- [tex]\( t \)[/tex] is the time
Given values:
- Speed ([tex]\( s \)[/tex]) = 29 meters per second
- Time ([tex]\( t \)[/tex]) = 30 seconds
Substituting the given values into the equation, we have:
[tex]\[ d = 29 \, \text{m/s} \times 30 \, \text{s} \][/tex]
Performing the multiplication:
[tex]\[ d = 870 \, \text{meters} \][/tex]
So, the car travels 870 meters in 30 seconds at a speed of 29 meters per second.
The correct answer is:
C. 870 m
