Eight people met in a public park for a nature walk. Before they set off to look for birds, they all introduce themselves and each person shook hands with each of the other people. How many handshake were exchanged?

The average distance the ambulance travels to reach an emergency situation is 6.64 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the speed formula:

Speed rate = distance / time  

Replacing with the values given:

0.83 miles per minute  = d / 8 minutes

Solving for d (distance)

0.83 mpm x 8 m =d

d =6.64 miles

The average distance the ambulance travels to reach an emergency situation is 6.64 miles.
