Answer:

4.8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First, divide the distance by time to get velocity.

S = D/T

S = 360/4

S = 90 mph

Then, subtract 15 from 90 to get the new speed.

90 - 15 = 75

Lastly divide the distance by the new speed to get time.

T = D/S

T = 360/75

T = 4.8

Therefore, it would take the car 4.8 hours to travel 360 miles at 75 miles per hour.
