Respuesta :

The  total distance in miles that she traveled duribg this time is 17.21miles

Distance and speed

Speed is defined as the rate of change of distance. Mathematically speed is expressed as:

Speed = Distance/Time

For the second trip

Speed = 55mph
Time = 3.5hours

Distance = 55/3.5

Distance = 15.71 miles

Total distance travelled = 1.5 miles + 15.71miles

Total distance travelled  = 17.21miles

Hence the  total distance in miles that she traveled duribg this time is 17.21miles
