CSEC Mathematics · May/June 2009 · Paper 2 · Question 4(a)(ii)

A table shows two readings from an aircraft's flight record: Time 08:55, Distance 957 km; Time 09:07, Distance 1083 km.

For the period of time between the two readings, calculate the average speed of the aircraft in km/h.

This question uses a figure or table from the paper — you'll see it when you practise.
