A speed boat, at full throttle, can go 65.0 miles in 1.5 hours. What is the average speed of the boat?

The average speed = 43.33 miles per hours(mph)

Given

distance = 65 miles

time = 1.5 hours

Required

The average speed

Solution

The average speed : distance traveled divided by time taken or total distance divided by total elapsed time

Can be formulated :

avg speed = distance : time

avg speed = d : t

Input the value :

avg speed = 65 miles : 1,5 hours

avg speed = 43.33 miles per hours(mph)

acid rain does not usually kill trees directly. instead, it is more likely to weaken the trees by damaging their leaves, limiting the nutrients available to them, or poisoning them with toxic substances slowly released from the soil. the main atmospheric pollutants that affect trees are nitrates and sulphates.
