Answers:

  • First Blank = 54
  • Second Blank = 162

=============================================

Explanation:

The first blank represents the distance that corresponds to t = 1 hour.

We'll replace t with 1 to get...

d = 54t

d = 54*1

d = 54

Therefore, 54 goes in the first blank. It means that Isaac traveled 54 miles after 1 hour.

------------------

We repeat these steps for t = 3

d = 54*t

d = 54*3

d = 162

This means he traveled 162 miles after 3 hours

So 162 goes in the second blank

-------------------

Side note: your teacher wrote 180 but s/he should have written 108 instead because 54*2 = 108
