Question

Lola wants to measure her average speed when biking around her neighborhood. What information does lola need to gather?

A. Distance traveled and direction
B. Bike weight and total time traveled
C. Bike weight and direction
D. Distance traveled and total time traveled

Answer 1

Answer: Lola will need distance traveled and total time traveled

Explanation:

Average speed is defined as the ratio of total distance traveled to the total time taken.

To calculate the average speed of the runner, we use the equation:

$\text{Average speed}=\frac{\text{Total distance traveled}}{\text{Total time taken}}$

The average speed is measured in meter/second or km/hr

Hence, Lola will need distance traveled and total time traveled
