Answer:
243 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
A hurricane traveled 180 miles in 4 hours.
Hurricane traveled in 1 hour = [tex]\frac{180}{4}[/tex]
= [tex]45[/tex]
The average rate at which the hurricane is moving slows by 10%
So, Distance traveled by hurricane in hour after 10% slow rate = [tex]45-\frac{10}{100} \times 45 =40.5[/tex]
The distance that the hurricane will travel in the following 6 hours = [tex]40.5 \times 6 =243[/tex]
So, Option C is true
Hence the distance that the hurricane will travel in the following 6 hours is 243 miles
