Hello!
First, remember that speed is a variation of position compared to a variation of time. It can be determined using the following formula:
v = Δx/Δt
where
Δx = variation in position
and
Δt = variation in time
If you know the speed and the time variation, you can isolate the displacement variable using the formula previously mentioned, like this:
Δx = Δt × v
Finally, you can replace the variables with the data provided to you!
I hope you found my answer helpful, do not hesitate to ask more questions!
