Answer 1

To convert miles per hour to kilometers per hour, we can use the conversion factor of 0.62 miles per kilometer.

Delta's speed in kilometers per hour can be calculated as follows:

17 miles/hour * 0.62 kilometers/mile ≈ 10.54 kilometers/hour

Rounding to the nearest tenth, Delta's speed in kilometers per hour is 10.5 kilometers/hour.

So the correct answer is 10.5.
