let's firstly convert the decimal to a fraction, namely a rational.
so we have one decimal, thus let's use 1 zero at the denominator and lose the dot on the numerator.

so then, what rationals are between -8/5 and +8/5? well, a huge amount hmmm let's pick two.

Answer:
v=26.41 m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
From the Newtons laws of motions, we sew that x= (2v₁²sin∅os∅)/g where x is the horizontal distance v is the initial speed and ∅ is the launch angle.
From trigonometry we see that 2 sin∅cos∅=sin 2∅
Therefore, x=(v²sin2∅)/g
x=22m
∅=9°
g=9.8m/s²
22m=v²×sin(2×9)/(9.8m/s²)
v²=(22×9.8)/(sin 18)
v²=697.696
v=√697.696
v=26.41 m/s
So to get the answer you multiply 48 by 1.15 and you get 55.2
