Respuesta :

I belive the correct answer would be 300 mp/h

The required speed of the plane to reach Los Angeles from Chicago is 300 miles per hour,

Given that,
A plane left Chicago at 8:00 A.M. At 1: P.M., the plane landed in Los Angeles, which is 1500 miles away. What was the average speed of the plane for the trip is to be determined?

What is speed?

Speed is defined as when an object is in motion, the distance covered by that object per unit of time is called speed.

What is arithmetic?

In mathematics, it deals with numbers of operations according to the statements. four major arithmetic operators are Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

The time taken by the plane to reach loas Angeles = 8 A.M. - 1 P.M.
                                                                                         =  5 hours

The distance between Chicago and Los Angeles = is 1500 miles
Now,
Speed = distance / time
Speed = 1500 / 5
Speed = 300 miles per hour

Thus, the required speed of the plane is 300 miles per hour,
