1. It took 10 seconds for an airplane to fly 3000 meters, how fast was it flying?
(Dont forget units!)

2. Two students ran an experiment testing how long it took a rocket to fly 2

3. Are there any data point in the previous question that should be thrown out?

4. Below is a graph of how long it takes a boat to travel 5 meters based on the
number of sail it has. Determine how fast the boat with 4 sails was traveling
