✓ Correct answer: D. 10.33 m/secTo find the average speed of the motorcycle, divide the distance traveled by the time taken: Average speed = Distance / Time. Since the answer options are given in m/sec, the time in minutes needs to be converted to seconds: x/30 min = 60 sec/1 min. x = (60 sec x 30 min)/1 min. x = 1800 sec. Then, divide the distance traveled (18,590 meters) by the time taken in seconds (1800 seconds) to find the average speed of the motorcycle: 18,590 m / 1,800 sec = 10.33 m/sec.
