16 / 5 = 48 / 12

16 * 12 = 5 * 48
192 = 240

which is incorrect  so 5 cannot be the solution of the equation.

substituting 4 for x  will give you 192=192

Michael took the return trip at a velocity 33.75 miles per hour.

<h3>How fast did Michael drive in his return trip?</h3>

Let suppose that Michael drove in <em>straight line</em> road and at <em>constant</em> velocity. Therefore, the speed of the vehicle (v), in miles per hour, can be defined as distance traveled by the vehicle (d), in miles, divided by travel time (t), in hours.

First trip

45 = s / 3     (1)

Second trip

v = s / 4       (2)

By (1) and (2):

45 · 3 = 4 · v

v = 33.75 mi / h

Michael took the return trip at a velocity 33.75 miles per hour.
