Answer:

The average speed of Marshall is 29.7 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

distance traveled to work, d₁ = 27 miles

distance traveled back home, d₂ = 27 miles

initial time taken, t₁ = 1 hour and 20 minutes

final time taken, t₂ = 29 minutes

Total distance traveled, d = d₁ + d₂ = 27 miles + 27 miles = 54 miles

Total time taken for the journey, t = t₁ + t₂ = 1 hour + ( 20 mins + 29 mins)

t = 1 hour + 49 mins = 1 hour + 0.817 hour = 1.817 hour

The average speed is given by;

v = total distance / total time

v = 54 miles / 1.817 hour

v = 29.7 mph

Therefore, the average speed of Marshall is 29.7 mph
