Question

Jenny is taking a vacation to Florida. She travels 70 kilometers per hour for 2 hours, and 63 kilometers per hour for 5 hours. Over the 7 hour time period what Jenny's average speed?

Answer 1

Jenny traveled 70 km/h over 2 hours and 63 km/h over 5 hours. Her travel time was a total of 7 hours. 

We need to find out how far she traveled during this 7-hour period.

70 km/h * 2 h = 140 km 
63 km/h * 5 h = 315 km

Then, we can add 140 km and 315 km to get a total distance traveled of 455 km/h.

We were asked to find the average speed. We can find it now, since we have total distance traveled (455 km) and total time taken (7 hours).

Then, 
455km / 7h = 65 km/h.
