    7,850 miles

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To find the speed use the formula s = d/t. Substitute d = 3140 and t = 10 to simplify to get the speed.

    3140/10 = 314.0 miles per hour.

    This is the rate of change for the pilot. Over 25 hours, he will fly 314*25 = 7850.

    He would fly 7,850 miles.
