Answer:
The correct answer is 54 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem we have to use the formula of
Speed=Distance/time
Both, car an truck made the same distance, so
Distance car=Speed car*time car
Distance truck =Speed truck*time truck
Distance car=Distance truck
So Speed car*time car =Speed truck*time truck
Speed car =Speed truck* time truck /time car
Time truck = time car +2 ( truck leaves 2 hours before)
Time car =10
Speed car =45 miles per hour* 12 /10
Speed car = 54 miles per hour
