Answer: 7 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

3 1/2 miles = 7/2 miles

1/2 hours= 30 minutes

So,

In 30 mins, travelled 7/2 miles

In 1 min, travelled 7/2 ÷ 30= 7/2× 1/30 = (7×1)/(2×30) = 7/60 miles

In 60 mins, travelled (7×60)/60 miles = 420/60 miles = 7 miles.

Hence, the speed is 7 miles per hour.
