A passengers jet flies from one
airport to another 1,200 miles away in 2.5h .Find its average speed.
speed=distance/time
aasa
To find the average speed, we can use the formula:
Average speed = Total distance / Total time
Given that the distance is 1,200 miles and the time is 2.5 hours, we can substitute the values into the formula to calculate the average speed:
Average speed = 1,200 miles / 2.5 hours = 480 miles/hour
Therefore, the average speed of the passenger jet is 480 miles per hour.
To find the average speed of the jet, you need to divide the total distance traveled by the time taken.
Average speed = Total distance / Time taken
In this case, the total distance traveled is given as 1,200 miles, and the time taken is 2.5 hours.
So, the average speed of the jet is:
Average speed = 1,200 miles / 2.5 hours
Dividing 1,200 miles by 2.5 hours gives you an average speed of:
Average speed = 480 miles per hour
