Answer 1

To convert miles per hour to kilometers per hour, we can multiply the speed in miles per hour by the conversion factor of 0.62 miles/kilometer.

Delta's speed in kilometers per hour is 17 miles/hour * 0.62 miles/kilometer = 10.54 kilometers/hour.

Rounding to the nearest tenth of a kilometer, Delta's speed is approximately 10.5 kilometers per hour.

The correct answer is 10.5.
