The average speed of the truck is calculated by dividing the total distance traveled in a span of the total time given. From the given above, the total distance traveled is
total distance = 203 mi + 243 mi = 446 mi
and the total time it took for the whole trip is
total time = 3.5 h + 4.5 h = 8 h
The average speed is therefore,
average speed = 446 mi/8 h = 55.75 mi/h
Thus, the answer is letter A.

Answer:
y = 3.02x^3 -5.36x^2 +5.68x +8.66
Step-by-step explanation:
Your graphing calculator (or other regression tool) can solve this about as quickly as you can enter the numbers. If you have a number of regression formulas to work out, it is a good idea to become familiar with at least one tool for doing so.

If you're trying to do this by hand, the x- and y-values give you 4 equations in the 4 unknown coefficients.
a·1^3 +b·1^2 +c·1 +d = 12
a·3^3 +b·3^2 +c·3 +d = 59
a·6^3 +b·6^2 +c·6 +d = 502
a·8^3 +b·8^2 +c·8 +d = 1257
Solving this by elimination, substitution, or matrix methods is tedious, but not impossible. Calculators and web sites can help. The solutions are a = 317/105, b = -75/14, c = 1193/210, d = 303/35. Approximations to these values are shown above.
