Otrada [13]

Answer: 114 km/h

Explanation:

The formula for determining average speed is expressed as

Average speed = total distance/total time

The car travels 85 km in the first half hour of a trip. The car continues to travel for 2 more hours and travels 200 km. It means that the total distance that the car travels is

85 + 200 = 285 km

The total time spent by the car is

0.5 + 2 = 2.5 hours

Therefore,

Average speed = 285/2.5 = 114 km/h
