Answer:

37.5 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The question might be trying to confuse the reader. Point (1) which states the difference in weight does not show any evidence on how it affects the speed of both cyclist. Point (2) show an important point where the distance traveled is 75 miles.

Cyclist B, who leave point X at 2pm overtook cyclist A at 4pm, showing that the time it took for B to overtook A is 2 hours

Speed = distance / time

= 75 miles / 2 hours

= 37.5 miles per hour

Paaralellogram has 2 pairs of paralell sidess
therefor there are 2 pairs of sides with same legnth
perimiter=legnth+widht+legnth+width since the opposite sides ar the same sinnce paralell
perimiter=2legnth +2width

perimiter=15.42
legnth=2.93
subsitute
15.42=2(2.93)+2width
15.42=5.86+2width
subtract 5.86 from both sides
9.56=2width
divide both sides by 2
4.78

legth of ther side is 4.78 cm
