Answer:

38 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

D represent Rachel's remaining distance( in meters ) as a function of time is given by


D=-38t+220

We have to find the Rachel's speed.

We know that


Velocity=(ds)/(dt)

Substitute the values then we get


v=(d(-38t+220))/(dt)=-38 m/s


Speed =\mid v\mid


Speed =\mid -38\mid =38m/s

Hence, the Rachel's speed is given by =38 m/s
