Step-by-step explanation:
in this problem, we are expected to convert from miles per hour to feet per second
a). What is her speed in miles per hour?
we know that speed= distance/ time
given that
distance= 26.2 mile
time= 5 hours
substitute and solve for speed we have
speed= 26.2/5
speed= 5.24 miles per hour
b) What is her speed in feet per second?
1 mile per hour is 1.46667 feet per second
5.24 miles per hours will give x
cross multiply to solve for x we have
x= 5.24*1.46667
x= 7.68 feet per seconds
