I know lots about whales! I can help you out!


The Humpback is an awesome creature. She weighs about 66,000 pounds. She's as long as 42 ft. when fully-grown. She eats up to 4,400-5,500 pounds of food (krill, small fish, plankton, mackerel, etc.). She can swim at top speed of 9 miles per hour (MPH).

Hope this helps!!!!!!!

Average speed=totaldistance/ttoaltime

d=rt
40mph for 30mins (1/2 hr), travels 20mi
rest for 15min (1/4 hr), travels 0mi
swims at 32mph for 45min (3/4hr), travels 96/4=24mi

total distance=20+0+24=44
total time=1/2+1/4+3/4=1 and 1/2=3/2
44/(3/2)=44 times 2/3=88/3=29 and 1/3

about 29 and 1/3 mph

Georgia [21]
A = L * W
(9/10) = (3/2) * W
Divide both sides (3/2)
(9/10) / (3/2) = W
(9/10) * (2/3) = W
18/30 = W
6/10 = W
W = 3/5 mile
