A, because it is logically sound
I am going to assume meters per second (or meters divided by seconds).
change 2 minutes 10 sec to seconds
2 × 60 + 10 = 120 + 10 = 130 seconds
now divide 800 by 130 for your answer
800 ÷ 130 = 6.15 m/s (meters per second)
This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.
Read: An Editorial: It's time for a nation to return the favor.
What is the “favor” in the editorial’s title?
Answer:
Since the entire country benefited from the economic activities of New Orleans, which could be considered a favor, it´s time for the nation to return that favor by protecting New Orleans of flooding and any possible new hurricane.
Explanation:
This editorial aims to convince the citizens of New Orleans to request Congress for help because they deserve it. Not only because they are part of the country, but also because the nation´s prosperity was boosted by the development of New Orleans. Furthermore, it was the weak levee system built by the federal government that caused the flooding after Hurricane Katrina.
