What is the mathematical formula for speed?

In: Math and Arithmetic [Edit categories]

Answer:

speed equals distance over time as in whatever the distance in the problem is, you divide it with the time in the problem. for example...bob ran 20 miles in 4 hours. what is his speed? so you get 20 over 4. 20 divided by four is 5 so his speed was 5 miles per hour. 5m/hr.

What is formula for speed?
Velocity is equal to the change in distance divided by the change in time. Speed is the magnitude of velocity
What is the formula of speed?
Speed=distance/time Velocity=displacement/time Acceleration=VI-VF/T or or OR S=d/t V=d/t a=vi-vf/t
What is the speed formula?
Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)
Formula of speed?
Speed is equal to the change in distance over the change in time, or V = D/T where V is speed, D is distance and T is time.
What the formula for speed?
v=dt velocity (speed) = distance x time, i think
