    Answer:

    E) The average velocity of the car is 90.0 miles per hour in the direction of motion.

    Explanation:

    Given;

    distance covered by the car, d = 90 miles

    time taken, t = 60 minutes = 1 hour

    The average velocity of the car is given by change in displacement per change in time;

    V = Δd / Δt

    V = \frac{x_f - x_o}{t_f -t_o} = \frac{90-0}{1-0} \\\\V = 90 \ miles/hour

    Therefore, the average velocity of the car is 90.0 miles per hour in the direction of motion.
