Answer :
Final answer:
In the PTDE program, out of the 44 required practice hours behind the wheel, 30 hours are required as practice hours, with at least 10 of those hours at night. The worked example demonstrates how to calculate travel time by dividing the total distance by the speed.
Explanation:
The question is asking about the Parent Taught Driver Education (PTDE) program requirements, specifically about the number of practice hours required behind the wheel. Out of the total 44 hours required for behind-the-wheel practice, there must be a minimum of 7 hours of in-car observation and 7 hours of behind-the-wheel instruction, which can be counted towards the total hours. Additionally, there should be 30 hours of behind-the-wheel practice hours, of which at least 10 hours must be done at night.
For the worked example, if a student has been driving at a speed of 20 miles per hour and has traveled a total distance of 80 miles, we can calculate the travel time by dividing the total distance by the speed. Therefore, the travel time is 80 miles ÷ 20 miles/hour = 4 hours.
