    Answer: 93.6 meters per minute to the south

    Explanation:

    Time taken by humpback whale = 12.5 minutes

    Displacement = 1,170. Meters South

    The whale's velocity = ?

    Recall that velocity is the rate of change of displacement per unit time.

    i. e Velocity = displacement / Time taken

    Velocity = 1170metres / 12.5 minutes

    = 93.6 meters per minute

    Thus, the whale's velocity is 93.6 meters per minute to the south
