Answer :

The speed of the boat using the distance and time form the graph would be = 26 miles per hour. That is option B.

How to calculate the speed of the boat?

To calculate the speed of the boat, the formula that should be used is given as follows. That is;

Speed of boat = Distance/time

Distance = y2-y1= 117-13 = 104

Time = X2-X1 = 4-0 = 4

Speed = 104/4 = 26 miles/hr
