Respuesta :

Answer:

Speed of hike = 1.7 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total distance = 8 miles

Distance already traveled = 4.6 miles

Total time remain to travel  = 2 hour

Find:

Speed of hike

Computation:

Distance remain = Total distance - Distance already traveled

Distance remain = 8 miles - 4.6 miles

Distance remain = 3.4 miles

Speed of hike = Distance remain / Total time remain to travel

Speed of hike = 3.4 / 2

Speed of hike = 1.7 miles per hour
