Give your answer rounded to 1 decimal place.

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle v=46.07\ Km/h[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed

The speed is the ratio between the distance x traveled by an object and the time t taken.

[tex]\displaystyle v=\frac{x}{t}[/tex]

The car travels x=43 Km in t=56 minutes. We are required to express the speed in Km/h. The time needs to be expressed in hours:

[tex]t = 56 / 60 = 0.933\ h[/tex]

Now apply the formula:

[tex]\boxed{\displaystyle v=\frac{43}{0.933}=46.07\ Km/h}[/tex]
