To calculate Anne's average speed, you can use the formula:
\[
\text{Average Speed} = \frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{Total Time}}
\]
In this case, the total distance is 17.08 miles, and the total time is 2.8 hours.
Plugging in the values:
\[
\text{Average Speed} = \frac{17.08 \text{ miles}}{2.8 \text{ hours}} \approx 6.0893 \text{ miles per hour}
\]
Rounding to two decimal places, Anne's average speed for the ride was approximately:
\[
6.09 \text{ miles per hour}
\]
\[
