write a speed to make: Average Emma trael at Emma's average speed there is a slope from 0,25 to 25,50 and a line to 60,50 and then a slope to 85,90 what is the average speed
To find the average speed, we need to calculate the total distance traveled and divide it by the total time taken.
The first slope from (0,25) to (25,50) has a horizontal distance of 25 and a vertical distance of 25. Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can calculate the diagonal distance as:
d1 = sqrt((25^2) + (25^2)) = 35.355
The second line from (25,50) to (60,50) has a horizontal distance of 35 and a vertical distance of 0, so the diagonal distance is simply:
d2 = 35
The third slope from (60,50) to (85,90) has a horizontal distance of 25 and a vertical distance of 40. Using the Pythagorean theorem:
d3 = sqrt((25^2) + (40^2)) = 47.169
Now, we can calculate the total distance:
total distance = d1 + d2 + d3 = 35.355 + 35 + 47.169 = 117.524
The time taken to travel these distances will depend on the speed at each section. Since you mentioned traveling at "Emma's average speed," we assume a constant speed throughout the entire journey.
To find the average speed, we need to know the time taken. If you provide the time taken to cover the distances mentioned, we can calculate the average speed using the formula:
average speed = total distance / total time
time taken is 0, 25, 60, 85
Thank you for providing the time intervals.
To calculate the average speed, we need to find the total time taken and divide it by the total distance.
Total time taken = 0 + 25 + (60-25) + (85-60) = 0 + 25 + 35 + 25 = 85
Using the previously calculated total distance of 117.524, we can now calculate the average speed:
Average speed = Total distance / Total time taken
= 117.524 / 85
≈ 1.3805 units of distance per unit of time
Therefore, the average speed of Emma's travel is approximately 1.3805 units of distance per unit of time.
