Multiple Choice

A plane begins its takeoff at 2:00 P.M. on a 3400-mile flight. After 7.5 hours, the plane arrives at its destination. Explain why there are at least two times during the flight when the speed of the plane is 400 miles per hour. ​

• A) By the Mean Value Theorem, there is a time when the speed of the plane must equal the average speed of 716 mi/hr. The speed was 400 mi/hr when the plane was accelerating to 716 mi/hr and decelerating from 716 mi/hr.
