Answer 1

Answer: No. Kyle will arrive late

Step-by-step explanation:

The only speed limit is 50 miles per hour.

Kyle must cover 130 miles.

His travel time = 130/50 = 2.6

2 hours + (0.6 of 60 minutes )

2 hours + (36 minutes)

i.e kyle needs 2hours 36 minutes to cover 130 miles

And since the baseball starts in 2 hours, kyle will be late. Thus, the answer is No
