Question

Karl drove for 4 hours. For part of the trip he drove at 50 miles per hour. For the rest of the trip he drove at 100 miles per hour.
All together he drove 250 miles.

Solve this equation for h to find out how many hours he drove at 50 miles per hour.

250 = 50h + 100(4 - h)

Answer 1

Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

250 = 50h + 100(4 - h)

250 = 50h + 400 - 100h

250 = -50h + 400

-150 = -50h

h = 3
