If a car travels 160 miles in 8 hours what is the car’s speed?

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

\[x = vt\] where \(x\) is displacement (distance), \(v\) is velocity (speed), and \(t\) is time. Solve the equation for \(v\): \(x = vt\), \(x/t = v\), \(v = x/t\) Now plug in your numbers.

20mp/h

which speed? Instantaneous or average.

@atifkhan9462 i think with this setup you can only find the average, but i have not gone thro any physics classes to be for sure
