We must look at this question in steps
The first half of the journey is travelled at 40 km/h
Half of 100km is 50 km
Using the formula
Distance = Speed x Time
Speed = Distance / Time
Time = Distance / Speed
We can work out the time:

50km / 40km/h = 1.25 hours

Next we look at the second half of the journey
50km at 80km/h
50km / 80km/h = 0.625 hours

Add together both times to work out how long the entire journey took
1.25 + 0.625 = 1.875 hours

Using the Speed formula from before
Speed = 100km / 1.875 =
53 1/3 km/h or 53.3 recurring km/h

disa [49]

Answer:

The first blank: not equal

The 2nd blank: not right triangle (it's acute triangle)

The 3rd blank: equal

The 4th blank: it's right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

4^2 = 3^2 + 3^2

<=> 16 = 9 + 9

<=> 16 = 18 ( nonsense)

so triangle LKJ is not right triangle

5^2 = 4^2 + 3^2

<=> 25 = 16 + 9

<=> 25 = 25 ( make sense)

so triangle ABC is right triangle

Done!! :))
