Question

A car travels at an average of 50 miles per hour for 2.5 hours and then travel at an speed of 70 miles per hour for 1.5 hour. how far car travel

Answer 1

Speed= 50 miles/ hour               Time=2.5 hour 
speed=70 miles / hour                Time=1.5 hour
 Using Speed= Distance/ time 
Distance= speed x Time
=50×2.5+70×1.5                 (Distance in 2.5 h + Distance in 1.5 h = Total Distance)
=125+105
=230 km

Answer 2

Answer:

235 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

A car travels at an average of 50 miles per hour for 2.5 hours

Speed = 50 miles / hour

Time = 2.5 hours

Distance = Speed *Time

Distance = 50 * 2.5

Distance = 125 miles

Now it travels at an speed of 70 miles per hour for 1.5 hour.

Speed = 70 miles / hour

Time = 1.5 hours

Distance = Speed *Time

Distance = 70 * 1.5

Distance = 105 miles

So, total distance = 125+105=235 miles.

Thus a car traveled 235 miles
