Part A.
The trip starts at 8am which corresponds to 0 hrs, point (0hr, 0mi)
2hrs later it's 10am. .point (2hr, 140mi)
The average speed is the slope between 0 and 2 hrs. Remember the slope formula m = Δy/Δx
m = (140 - 0) / (2 - 0)
m = 70 mph
Part B. Average speed from 11am - 2pm
11am is point (3hr, 140mi)
2pm is point (6hr, 300mi)
As you can see from the graph, the speed or slope changes at 1pm (5,260). You Can just use the start and end points.
m = (300-140) / (6-3)
m = 160/3
53.3 mph
* It comes out the same solution as if you average the two different slopes. 2hrs at 60mph + 1 hr at 40mph = (120 + 40)/3 = 160/3
Part C. Total average speed = total distance / total time driving
He went 70 mph for 2 hrs
stopped for an hour (slope is zero, no speed)
60 mph for 2hrs
40mph for 1 hr
300mi /5hr = 60mph
Part D. No Question....
Answer:
1 - 7721 = -7220 so i don't really see the answer in the choices you gave.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer choices???? Idk if this is right but I calculated and I got 16.2
It’s the top one on the right side
Answer:
P = 60
P = 500
Step-by-step explanation:
60, 300
100, 500
They're all being multiplied by 5 :)
