Answer:

8km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance covered during the first 5hours = 20km

Time taken to cover this distance = 5hours

Since ;

Speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$

Speed = $\frac{20}{5}$ = 4km/hr

Given also that the car traveled with a constant speed throughout the tour and we have found the speed to be 4km/hr;

Distance covered in 2hrs;

Distance = speed x time

= 4 x 2

= 8km

8 km

Step-by-step explanation:

We begin by finding the speed of the tour boat;

Speed = distance/ time

= 20 / 5

= 4km/hr

To find distance traveled by the boat in 2 hrs;

Distance = speed * time

= 4 * 2

= 8 km
