Solution

To determine how far the delivery driver can travel in 7 hours, we first need to find their rate of travel in miles per hour.

  1. Calculate the rate of travel: Rate=Total DistanceTotal Time=165 miles3 hours=55 miles per hour \text{Rate} = \frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{Total Time}} = \frac{165 \text{ miles}}{3 \text{ hours}} = 55 \text{ miles per hour}

  2. Use the rate to find the distance traveled in 7 hours: Distance=Rate×Time=55 miles per hour×7 hours=385 miles \text{Distance} = \text{Rate} \times \text{Time} = 55 \text{ miles per hour} \times 7 \text{ hours} = 385 \text{ miles}

Therefore, the delivery driver can travel 385 miles in 7 hours. The correct answer is 385 miles.
