If the Spirit of Australia, a boat,reaches speeds of 318.67 mph for 0.75 hours (45 minutes), what is the distance it traveled?

Respuesta :

Answer: 239.0025 miles.

Explanation:

First we have the relationship:

Distance  = speed*time.

Because how it is worded, i guess that the boat can mantain a constant speed of 318.67 mph for 0.75 hours.

Then, we have the speed and the time, with those values we can find the distance.

speed = 318.67 mph

Time = 0.75 hours.

Distance = 318.67 mph*0.75h = 239.0025 miles.
