Respuesta :

Answer:

First question : 61 miles per hour

Second question : 21 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Since,

[tex]Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]

First question :

Distance = 244 miles,

Time = 4 hours,

So speed = [tex]\frac{244}{4}[/tex] = 61 miles per hour,

Second question :

Distance = 15 miles,

Time = 43 minutes = [tex]\frac{43}{60}[/tex] hours ( ∵ 1 hour = 60 minutes )

So, speed = [tex]\frac{15}{43/60}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{900}{43}[/tex] = 20.930232 ≈ 21 miles per hour
