Problema Solution

during a 105 mile trip, you travel x hours at a speed of 55 mph and (x-2) hours at a speed of 45 mph

Answer provided by our tutors

we assume the question is something like "solve for x" but this should be stated


105 mile = 55 mile/hour * x hour + 45 mile/hour * (x-2) hour


105 = 55x + 45(x-2)

solving for 'x':

x = 1.95
