Seraphina is driving two hours to visit her family. for the first hour, she traveled at a speed of 60 miles per hour. then, in the second hour, she traveled at a speed of 73 miles per hour. what is the percentage increase of seraphina's speed? if necessary, round to the nearest tenth of a percent.

percent change = (amount of change)/(original amount) × 100%

... = (73 -60)/60 × 100%

... = 13/60 × 100%

... ≈ 0.216667 × 100%

... ≈ 21.7%

Sarah's speed in the second hour was about 21.7% greater than in the first hour.

450 is the final answer! : )

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.
