The depth of Point A: 800 ft.
The depth of the Point B : 160 ft.
The distance from the point A to point B:
800 - 160 = 640 ft.
The fraction is:
640 / 800 = 4/5
The slope is 9
whatever is in front of x = the slope
Is the = -13. Is the response
73 feet per second
Steps-
Miles to cover- 50 miles = 50*5280 feet = 264,000 feet
Time it takes- 1 hour = 1*60*60 seconds = 3,600 seconds
So speed is- 264,000 feet per 3,600 seconds = 264,000 / 3,600 = 73.33 ft per second
