Answer:
The speed of the jet is 
Step-by-step explanation:
The speed traveled by the jet can be found using the relationship between distance and time. Because the problem gives the values for distance and time, they must be replaced in the equation and in this way the requested speed will be found.
1. Write the general equation for the speed:

2. Replace the values of distance and time on the general equation for the speed and make the mathematical operations:


Therefore the speed of the jet is 
Thannnnnnnnk yooooooouuuuuuu
⇒ common ratio =r=3 and the given sequence is geometric sequence. Where an is the nth term, a is the first term and n is the number of terms. ⇒ 12th term is 708588 .
(May be wrong for some other users, although it's correct for me.)
3/4 + 2/3 = 17/12
7/8 - 2/3 = 5/24
3/5 x 1/3 = 1/5
4/7 x 2/3 = 8/21
