Algebra.Com's Answer #726963 by amalm06(224)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The total time taken for the trip is 3 hr and the total average speed is 75 km/h.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "For this problem, average speed = average velocity = Δx/Δt\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, Δx=(75 km/h)(3 hr) = 225 km\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the displacement for the remaining 1 hr is 225-(2)(80)= 65 km\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Thus, you must drive 65 km/hr (Answer) \n" ); document.write( " |
