Answer:

  5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

An hour and 25 minutes is 85 minutes. Using the given information we can find the distance d with the proportion ...

  [tex]\dfrac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}}=\dfrac{d}{85\text{ min}}=\dfrac{1\text{ mi}}{17\text{ min}}\\\\d=\dfrac{85\text{ min}}{17\text{ min}}(1\text{ mi)}\qquad\text{multiply by $85$ min}\\\\d=5(1\text{ mi})\qquad\text{simplify}\\\\d=\boxed{5\text{ mi}}[/tex]

In 1 hour and 25 minutes, Nick will travel 5 miles.
