    A. We are given that they already drove 420 miles and an additional of 65 miles per hour. Therefore distance covered is:

    d = 420 + 65 t

    where d is distance and t is time

    B. If they drove 8 hours per day for 2 days, then total time is t = 16 hours, hence:

    d = 420 + 65 * 16

    d = 1460 miles
