Question

Lance Armstrong wants to travel from Orlando to Tampa (117 miles) on his bike in 180 min or less . What speed must he travel to achieve his goals?

Answer 1

For covering from Orlando to Tampa in 180 min or less Lance must travel at a minimum speed of 39 miles per hour on his bike.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between Orlando and Tampa = 117 miles.

Time at which he need to cover 117 miles distance = 180 mins = 3 hours.

We have speed of a body = Distance traveled by the body / Time taken for covering the distance.

= 117/3

= 39 miles per hour.

So for covering from Orlando to Tampa in 180 min or less Lance must travel at a minimum speed of 39 miles per hour on his bike.
