Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, if you're rounding to 1 significant figure, which you'll mostly be asked to do,
You look and see which number is the first one which isn't a zero. The most significant. In this example, the 8. You then need to look at the second number, it's a zero. It has no value and doesn't do anything to the 8. The number after that gets rounded down to a zero, it's too far away to effect the 8, and even if it could it's too low.
The answer is 8.

Answer:
21.09 ft/s
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to create the ratio of speed/time.
Next we must simplify
Next we must convert 14 miles in to feet. There are 5280 feet in a mile.
14 * 5280ft = <u>75,920 feet</u>
Now for hours into seconds.
1 hour = 60 min, 60 min = 3600 seconds
Our new ratio is \frac{75920ft}{3600sec}
simplify.
75920ft / 3600sec = 21.09ft/s
