Adnan drives 16.5 miles in 10 minutes. He passes a sign which gives the speed limit as 70 mph. By how much, in mph, did Adnan's average speed exceed the speed limit?​

Respuesta :

Answer:  29 mph

=========================================================

Explanation:

10 minutes = 10/60 = 1/6 of an hour

Divide the distance over the time duration to find his speed

speed = distance/time

speed = (16.5 miles)/( 1/6 hr )

speed = 16.5*(6/1) mph

speed = 99 mph

Then subtract off the speed limit posted by the sign.

99 - 70 = 29 mph

Adnan is 29 mph over the speed limit.
