Answer:

8696 feet

Explanation:

We are given that the sound travels at a speed of nearly 1087 feet per second when the temperature is 32 F. And we are supposed to find the distance the sound travels in 8 seconds.

We know the formula of the speed:


Speed = (distance)/(time)

Putting in the values to find the distance:


1087=(distance)/(8)


distance = 1087*8\\\\distance=8696

Therefore, the speed travels for 8696 feet in 8 seconds.
