Answer:

41.14 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Cat is a high speed catamaran auto feery that operates between city A and city B.

Cat travel distance in trip =144 miles

Time taken by Cat in trip=2 and one half hours=2+1\frac{1}{2}=2+\frac{3}{2}=2+1.5=3.5 hours

We know that speed=\frac{Total\;distance}{time\;taken}

Substitute the value in the given formula

Then, we get speed of Cat=\frac{144}{3.5}=41.14 mph

Hence, the speed of Cat=41.14 mph

The catamaran speed for this trip is \boxed{57.6{\text{ miles/hour}}}.

Further explanation:

The relationship between speed, distance and time can be expressed as follows,

\boxed{{\text{Speed}} = \frac{{{\text{Distance}}}}{{{\text{Time}}}}}

Given:

The distance covered by the catamaran is 144{\text{ miles}}.

The time taken to travel is 2 and one half hours.

Explanation:

Consider the speed of catamaran for this trip as S{\text{ miles/hours}}.

The distance between the city A and city B is 144{\text{ miles}}.

The time taken to travel is 2 and one half hours.

The time taken by the Cat can be expressed as follows,

\begin{aligned}{\text{Time}} &= 2 + \frac{1}{2}\\&= 2 + 0.5\\&= 2.5\\\end{aligned}

The speed can be obtained as follows,

\begin{aligned}{\text{Speed}} &= \frac{{144}}{{2.5}}\\&= \frac{{1440}}{{25}}\\&= 57.6{\text{ miles/hour}}\\\end{aligned}

The catamaran speed for this trip is \boxed{57.6{\text{ miles/hour}}}.

How is the process of finding equivalent ratios like the process of finding equivalent fractions
MaRussiya [10]
Ratios are fractions. Equivalent means equal, if you change one set of numbers, you have to change the second set of numbers so then that Ratio or Equivalent fraction stays equal on both sides.
