To convert miles per hour to kilometers per hour, we can use the conversion factor of 0.62 miles per kilometer.
Delta's speed in kilometers per hour can be calculated as follows:
17 miles/hour * 0.62 kilometers/mile ≈ 10.54 kilometers/hour
Rounding to the nearest tenth, Delta's speed in kilometers per hour is 10.5 kilometers/hour.
So the correct answer is 10.5.
To convert Delta's average speed from miles per hour to kilometers per hour, we need to use the conversion factor of 1 kilometer is approximately equal to 0.62 miles.
First, we'll multiply her average speed in miles per hour by the conversion factor:
17 miles/hour * 0.62 kilometers/mile = 10.54 kilometers/hour
To round to the nearest tenth of a kilometer, we round 10.54 to 10.5 kilometers/hour.
Therefore, Delta's speed in kilometers per hour is 10.5.
To convert miles per hour to kilometers per hour, you need to multiply the speed in miles per hour by the conversion factor, which is 0.62.
So, to find Delta's speed in kilometers per hour, multiply her average speed of 17 miles per hour by 0.62:
17 miles per hour * 0.62 = 10.54 kilometers per hour
Rounding to the nearest tenth of a kilometer, Delta's speed is approximately 10.5 kilometers per hour.
Therefore, the correct answer is 10.5.
