Answer:

Average speed = $\frac{(x+y)}{2}$ miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to calculate the average speed of an object is,

Average speed = $\frac{\text{Total distance covered}}{\text{Time taken to cover this distance}}$

If I travel with the speed of x mph for t hours,

Total distance covered = Speed × Time

= $x\times t$

= $xt$ miles

Similarly, if I travel with the speed y mph for t hours,

Total distance covered = $yt$ miles

Total distance covered by me = $(xt+yt)$ miles

Total time taken to cover this distance = $t+t$

= $2t$ hours

Therefore, expression for the average speed will be,

Average speed = $\frac{xt+yt}{2t}$

= $\frac{(x+y)t}{2t}$

= $\frac{x+y}{2}$ miles per hour

1 / 5^-2

First, let's work out the denominator.
5^ -2 = 1/25. When an exponent is negative, it means to put a 1 over the product. Like we did earlier.

Now we have 1 / (1/25).

1 / (1/25)
Divide 1 by 25.
1 / 0.04
Divide 1 by 0.04
25

The answer is 25!
