Question 144299
Jacob drove from St. Petersburg, Florida to Phoenix, Arizona, stopping in Baton Rouge, Lousiana and El Paso, Texas along the way. He spent 40 hours driving in all.

Between St. Petersburg and Baton Rouge, a distance of 734 miles, Jacob's average speed was 47 miles per hour. What was his average speed from Baton Rouge to Phoenix?
-------------
St.Pete to BR DATA:
distance = 734 miles ; rate = 47 mph ; time = 734/47 = 15.617 hrs.
----------------
BR to Phoenix DATA:
distance = x miles ; time = 24.383 hrs; rate = x/24.383 hrs.
-----------------
Comment: A piece of data is missing: maybe total distance.
