Answer:vs=5mph  , vk=7+vs=12mph

Explanation: kinematics with constant speed

(shaun) xs = 0 + vs*t

(keegan)  xk= 68 - vk*t

they meet after t= 4hours (xs=xk):

vs*t=  68-vk*t

but we know that vk=7+vs ( keegan faster) replacing:

vs*4= 68-(7+vs)*4

solving vs=5mph  , vk=7+vs=12mph

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The average speed of the elevator going down in the abandoned mine is 17.722mph.

Explanation:

If the elevator takes 90 seconds to descend a height of 713m, the average speed of the elevator is:

v_{av}=x_T/t_T=713m/90s=7.922m/s

And if 1m/s is 2.23694mph, the average speed is:

v_{av}=7.922m/s=17.722mph.
