PLZ HELP!!!! I NEED A ANSWER AND THE FIRST ONE TO ANSWER WILL GET A BRAINLIEST!!!!

Respuesta :

Answer: 3 miles per hour

Explanation:

The initial speed u =  15mph

The final speed v= 45mph

The time t= 10 seconds  

A=?

v=u+at

45=15+a*10

45=15+10a

45-15=10a

30=10a

divide both sides by 10

a=30 divided by 10

a= 3 miles per hour

3mph, person above me is right
