1. **State the problem:** We need to find the average acceleration of the Koenigsegg Agera R as it goes from 0.00 mph to 60.0 mph in 2.90 seconds.
2. **Formula for average acceleration:**
$$a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$$
where $a$ is acceleration, $\Delta v$ is the change in velocity, and $\Delta t$ is the change in time.
3. **Convert velocity from mph to m/s:**
Since 1 mph = 0.44704 m/s,
$$60.0\ \text{mph} = 60.0 \times 0.44704 = 26.8224\ \text{m/s}$$
4. **Calculate change in velocity:**
$$\Delta v = 26.8224 - 0 = 26.8224\ \text{m/s}$$
5. **Calculate average acceleration:**
$$a = \frac{26.8224}{2.90}$$
6. **Show intermediate step with cancellation:**
$$a = \frac{\cancel{26.8224}}{\cancel{2.90}} \times \frac{26.8224}{2.90}$$
7. **Simplify:**
$$a \approx 9.25\ \text{m/s}^2$$
**Final answer:** The average acceleration is approximately $9.25$ m/s².
