Sally Leadfoot was pulled over on her way from Syracuse to Ithaca by an officer claiming she was speeding. The speed limit is 65 mi/hr and Sally had traveled 97 km in 102 minutes. How fast was Sally’s average speed in mi/hr? (1 mi = 1.609 km)

Respuesta :

Answer:35.462 mi/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

speed limit is 65 mi/hr

sally traveled 97 km in 102 minutes

also 1 mile is equal to 1.609 km

97 km is 60.285 miles

therefore sally average speed is [tex]\frac{60.285\times 60}{102} mi/hr [/tex]=35.462 mi/hr

Thus average of sally is less than the speed limit
