Question

7. A car drives 50 miles in the first hour on the road, 70 miles during the 2nd hour and 10 miles for 1/2 hour (traffic jam), then 60 miles in the final half hour of the trip. What was the average speed for the entire trip?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Average Speed = Total Distance / Total Time

Total Distance = 50+ 70 + 10 + 60 = 190 Miles

Total Time = 1 + 1 + 1/2 + 1/2 =  3 hours

Average speed = 190 / 3 = 63.3 mph
