Answer:

53 1/3 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

average speed = (total distance)/(total time)

average speed = distance/time

time * average speed = distance

time = distance/(average speed)

250 km at 75 km/h

distance = 250 km

time = (250 km)/(75 km/h) = 3.33333... hours

350 km at 70 km/h

distance = 350 km

time = (350 km)/(70 km/h) = 5 hours

200 km at 30 km/h

distance = 200 km

time = (200 km)/(30 km/h) = 6.6666...  hour

total distance = 250 km + 350 km + 200 km = 800 km

total time = 3.33333... hours + 5 hours + 6.66666... hours = 15 hours

average speed = (total distance)/(total time)

average speed = (800 km)/(15 hours)

average speed = 53 1/3 km/h

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two types of spinners here and the outcome of them is independent. That means

P(odd number,C) = P(odd number) * P(C)

There are two odd numbers out of four numbers in the first spinner. The chance of odd number will be:

P(odd) = 2/(2+2)= 1/2= 50%

There are four letters and the desired outcome is C. The chance for C will be:

P(C)= 1/4= 25%

Then the chance will be:

P(odd number,C) = P(odd number) * P(C)

P(odd number,C) =50% * 25% = 12.5%
