Answer 1

Speed is defined as the distance travelled per time. Given that Travis travelled 354 miles in 6 hours, his speed is 59 miles per hour. However, this is Travis’ average speed and does not reflect his instantaneous speed at any time during his travel.

`Speed=(Distance)/(Time)`

`Speed=(354)/(6)` = 59 miles

Travis traveled 59 miles per hour
