Respuesta :

What was the distance it covered if you tell me that I will be able to answer?





Answer:

B.

3.9 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the distance covered by the wolf is 10,000 meters. Recall that

Distance = speed × time

Also 60 seconds makes 1 minute hence

42 minutes = 42 × 60 seconds = 2520 seconds

Total time = 2520 seconds + 25 seconds = 2545 seconds

The wolf's average speed = 10,000 meters/2545 seconds

= 3.939 m/s
