Answer:

D. Joseph is incorrect the car was traveling 25 feet per second because 600÷24=25 feet per second

Explanations:

Distance raced in 24 seconds = 600 Feet

Distance raced in 1 second = 600 / 24

Distance raced in 1 second = 25 feet

Therefore, the speed of the car = 25 feet per second

Joseph said the speed = 20 feet per second

Joseph is incorrect because the car was travelling 25 feet per second
