In the future, a spaceship has traveled three percent of the distance to a space station. If the ship has traveled 2.9 x 10^7 miles so far, how much further does the ship have to travel to its destination?

Explanation:

The spaceship has traveled 3% of the distance to a space station and it has traveled miles.

Let the total distance from the ship's starting point to the space station be x.

This means that:

The total distance to be traveled is .

Therefore, the distance left to travel is:

the bal will not change its velocity.
