Answer :
50mph for 1.5 hr
50 miles = 1 hr
25 miles = .5 hr
so that makes 75 miles so far
70/2 = 35 = .5 hr
75+35
110 miles
Juan drove 110 miles for a total of two hours
50 miles = 1 hr
25 miles = .5 hr
so that makes 75 miles so far
70/2 = 35 = .5 hr
75+35
110 miles
Juan drove 110 miles for a total of two hours
Answer:
The total distance that he drive is:
110 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the distance is defined as the product of speed and time.
i.e.
[tex]Distance=Speed\times Time[/tex]
It is given that:
Juan drives 50 mph for 1.5 hours.
This means that at this rate the distance traveled by him is:
[tex]Distance_1=50\times 1.5\\\\i.e.\\\\Distance_1=75\ miles[/tex]
and he travels at the rate of 70 mph for 0.5 hours.
This means that the distance traveled by him at this rate is:
[tex]Distance_1=70\times 0.5\\\\i.e.\\\\Distance_1=35\ miles[/tex]
Hence, the total distance that he drive is:
[tex]Total\ distance=Distance_1+Distance_2\\\\Total\ distance=75+35\\\\i.e.\\\\Total\ distance=110\ miles[/tex]
