Question

A jet airliner flies at a constant speed, covering 305 miles in 2.9 hours. What is the speed of the plane in miles per hour?

Answer 1

We will have that the speed of the plane is:

`v=(305mi)/(2.9h)\Rightarrow v=(3050)/(29)mi7h`
`\Rightarrow v\approx105.2mi/h`

So, the speed of the jet is approximately 105.2 miles per hour,
