Answer:

The average speed is [tex]\frac{3}{35}\frac{ft}{min}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out the average speed divide the distance by the time

Let

s -----> average speed

d -----> the distance in feet

t ----> the time in minutes

[tex]s=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]

we have

[tex]d=6\ ft[/tex]

[tex]t=70\ min[/tex]

substitute

[tex]s=\frac{6}{70}\frac{ft}{min}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]s=\frac{3}{35}\frac{ft}{min}[/tex]
