Algebra.Com's Answer #143155 by orca(409)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Use this formula to find the speed: \n" ); document.write( "speed = (distance traveled)/(time spent)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Before substituting the time into the formula, change the unit of time from minutes to hours. \n" ); document.write( "15 minutes = 15/60 hour = 0.25 hour\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now \n" ); document.write( "speed = 120/0.25 = 480 km/h. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
