A man leaves his house and begins walking in a straight line. After 2 hours he is ten miles from home. Calculate the man's average speed in terms of feet per second. (There are 3600 seconds in an hour and 5280 feet in a mile.)

so i used Average speed=total distance traveled/ total traveling time.

10*5280=52800
------------- =7.33ft/s
2*3600=7200

To calculate the man's average speed in terms of feet per second, you correctly used the formula: average speed = total distance traveled / total traveling time.

First, convert the distance traveled from miles to feet:
10 miles * 5280 feet/mile = 52,800 feet.

Next, convert the traveling time from hours to seconds:
2 hours * 3600 seconds/hour = 7200 seconds.

Now, substitute these values into the formula: average speed = 52,800 feet / 7200 seconds.

Calculating this equation, the man's average speed in terms of feet per second is 7.33 ft/s.
