Final answer:
The distance Abigail hiked is calculated by multiplying her hiking time of 1.75 hours by her average speed of 3.5 mi/h, giving a total of 6.125 miles which rounds to 6.13 miles. The correct answer is option B.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student is asking to calculate the total distance Abigail hiked at Death Valley National Park. The formula to find distance when time and speed are known is Distance = Speed × Time. Given Abigail's hiking time of 1.75 hours and her average speed of 3.5 mi/h, we can use the formula to calculate the total distance hiked:
To find the number of miles Abigail hiked, we can use the formula:
Distance = Speed x Time
Given that Abigail hiked for 1.75 hours at an average speed of 3.5 mi/h, we can substitute these values into the formula:
Distance = 3.5 mi/h x 1.75 hours
Using the formula, we can calculate the distance:
Distance = 3.5 mi/h x 1.75 hours
Distance = 6.125 miles
Therefore, the correct answer is Option B) 6.13 miles.
Distance = 3.5 mi/h × 1.75 hours = 6.125 miles, which can be rounded to 6.13 miles.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B, 6.13 miles.
