Answer: The speed of the dog is 8 ft/s
Explanation:
Speed is defined as the ratio of distance traveled to the time taken.
To calculate the distance traveled by boat, we use the equation:
[tex]\text{Speed of the dog}=\frac{\text{Distance traveled}}{\text{Time taken}}[/tex]
We are given:
Distance traveled by dog = 40 ft
Time taken = 5 seconds
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]\text{Speed of the dog}=\frac{40ft}{5s}\\\\\text{Speed of the dog}=8ft/s[/tex]
Hence, the speed of the dog is 8 ft/s
