Sally travels by car from one city to another. she drives for 30 min at 80 km/hr, 12 min at 105 km/hr, and 45 min at 40 km/hr, and she spends 15 min eating lunch and buying gas.
a. determine the average speed for the trip.
b. determine the total distance traveled.

Explanation:

The average speed can be defined as the quotient between the total distance traveled and the time that took.

By given, we have the speed of each interval, and their corresponding time, we just need to find the distance traveled in each interval, and sum them all

First, we need to transform minutes to hours. We know that 1 hour equals 60 minutes.

Then, we use the definition of constant movements, assuming that's an actual constant motion

Now, we do the same for the rest of the intervals

Then,

So, the total distance traveled is

And the total time is

Now, the average speed is

Therefore, the average speed is 91km/hr and the total distance traveled is 91km.

learn it on the intertant so you can solve

the answer is ampere

the ampere is used to measure electricity. an ampere is a unit of electric current equal. a unit of measure for the flow of current in a circuit. one ampere is the amount of current flow provided when one volt of electrical pressure is applied against one ohm of resistance.
