Answer:
63.09 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Carlos traveled 347 miles to go to his cousins’ house. It took him about 5.5 hours to drive there.
To Find: average speed in miles per hour.
Solution:
Distance traveled by Carlos to travel to his cousin's house [tex]=347[/tex] [tex]\text{miles}[/tex]
time taken by Carlos to reach his cousin's house [tex]=5.5[/tex] [tex]\text{hours}[/tex]
Now,
we know that
[tex]\text{speed}=\frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}}[/tex]
putting values in equation
[tex]\frac{347}{5.5}[/tex]
[tex]63.09[/tex] [tex]\text{miles per hour}[/tex]
Hence, average speed of carlos is [tex]63.09[/tex] [tex]\text{miles per hour}[/tex]
