Hello!</h2>
The answer is:
The average speed for the total trip is 753.19 mph.
<h2>
Why?</h2>
To calculate the average speed for the total trip, we need to calculate the time of travel for both distances according to their speeds.
So, calculating we have:
- First distance and speed: 3334 miles at 760 mph
Let's use the following formula:
Then, substituting we have:
Therefore, we have that the first distance was covered in 4.39 hours.
- Second distance and speed: 2244.7 miles at 740mph
Let's use the following formula:
Then, substituting we have:
Therefore, we have that the second distance was covered in 3.03 hours.
Now, calculating the average speed, we have:
Substuting we have:
Hence, we have that the average speed for the total trip is 753.19 mph.
Have a nice day!
