Answer:

Option A) Speed = 1/20 of an inch per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance = 6 inches

Time = 120 mins

Required:

Average Speed = ?

Formula:

Average Speed = Total Distance Covered / Total Time Taken

Solution:

Speed = 6/120

Speed = 1/20 of an inch per minute

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{20}[/tex] of an Inch per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = Distance ÷ Time

So....

6 ÷ 120 = 0.05 or [tex]\frac{1}{20}[/tex]

Also by process of elimination

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] of an inch per min would complete 6 inches in 12 min.

2 inches per min would complete 6 inches in 3 min

20 inches per minute would complete 6 inches in a few seconds.
