A train travels 60 miles per hour for 3 hours and then 45 miles per hour for 2 hours. What is the train’s average speed in miles per hour during the 5‑hour period?

Explanation:

Average speed is given by

Total distance/ total time taken

So we need to know the distance in the first travel

Then

First part

Speed=60miles/hour

Time 3hours

Distance = speed × time

Distance = 60×3

Distance = 180 miles

Second part

Speed 45mile/hour

And time is 2hours

Distance = speed × time

Distance = 45× 2

Distance = 90miles

So total distance travelled for both cases is 90+180=270miles

And total time is 5hours

Then,

Average speed = total distance/total time

A.S=270/5

A.S= 54miles/hour

"i have always loved contemporary art and made it a general goal to work within the field. after a few nonprofit internships at museums and galleries, i decided to try the for-profit art world and was offered a job as the ad assistant at the magazine. i much prefer the pace of the for-profit art community and have stayed with the company for three years, with a promotion to an account manager last spring."

i just did this and got a 100.

the answer would most likely be c, because if it's a comical piece of information, it may likely not be true, if it's a site that allows anybody to edit the content, it could mean a five year old is typing the info, and if it's a tv show produced by a celeb, it may have a biased opinion.
