Question

A person drives 4 miles to the mall. If the speed limit is 45 miles/hr and the person

Answer 1

Answer: Third Option

Yes, the person is going 133 miles/hr.

Explanation:

Remember that the average speed can be calculated as

$s = \frac{d}{t}$

Where s is the speed

d is the distance traveled

t is the time

In this case

$d =4\ miles$

$t=0.03\ hours$

Therefore

$s = \frac{4}{0.03}$

$s = 133.33\ miles/hr$

Remember that the speed limit is 45 miles/hr

So the answer is the third option "Yes, the person is going 133 miles/hr".
