To calculate the distance the student traveled during the first part of the trip at an average speed of 57 mi/h for 1 hour and 30 minutes, you can use the formula:

Distance = Speed × Time

First, convert the time to hours because the speed is in miles per hour:

1 hour and 30 minutes = 1.5 hours

Now, calculate the distance:

Distance = 57 mi/h × 1.5 h = 85.5 miles

So, during the first part of the trip, the student traveled 85.5 miles at an average speed of 57 mi/h.

The question seems to be incomplete but let’s calculate the Distance for the first part of the trip = S1 * T1

Distance = 57mi/h * 1.5h

The distance for the first part of the trip is 85.5 miles.
