Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

v = the original speed of the cruise

d = 225 km the distance passed

t = d/v = 225/v the total time of the travel

v*1.5 + (v + 10)(d/v - 1.5 - 0.5) = d (using the formula distance = speed*time)

1.5v + (v + 10)(225/v - 2) = 225

Slove for v<br> 8(v-4)+7v=-2
Butoxors [25]
8(v−4)+7v=−2

(8)(v)+(8)(−4)+7v=−2

8v+−32+7v=−2

(8v+7v)+(−32)=−2

15v+−32=−2

15v−32=−2

Add 32 to both sides.

15v−32+32=−2+32

15v=30

Divide both sides by 15.

15v/15=30/15

v = 2
