Answer:
26.4 km/hr
Step-by-step explanation:
Sofia and Diego drive to work.
For Sofia
We convert miles to km
Sofia drives 72 miles in 1.5 hours.
1 mile = 1.6 km
72 miles = x
x = 72 × 1.6 km
x = 115.2 km
We find the speed in km/hr
Speed = Distance /Time
= 115.2km/1.5 hours
= 76.8 km/hr
For Diego
Diego drives 126 km in 2 hour 30 min.
Speed = Distance/Time
Time = 2 hour 30 min = 2.5 hours
Speed = 126km/2.5 hours
= 50.4 km/hr
The difference between their average speeds in km/h is calculated as:
76.8 km/hr - 50.4 km/hr
= 26.4 km/hr
The correct answer is the last one
Well if you are looking for the profit margin we need how much is was when she bought it, because it doesn't say, you can't say It's a increase or a decrease, so you could say this is a investment.
But considering you put this under mathematics I assume there is more to this question you forgot to post.
