Answer 1

D the answer is hope it helps

Answer 2

Here, Distance = 145 - 98 miles = 47 miles
Time Taken = 45 minutes = 3/4 hours

We know, Speed = Total Distance / Time Taken

Substitute their values in to the expression :
Speed = 47 / 3/4
Speed = 47*4 / 3
Speed = 188 / 3
Speed = 62.666
After round-off to the nearest tenth, it would be: 62.7

So, option D is your correct answer.

Hope this helps!
