Answer:
The average speed for both days, while driving is 42.77 miles/hr.
Explanation:
Given that,
Distance first day = 500 miles
Distance second day = 270 miles
According to question,
The distance covered by the john in 10 hours = 500 miles
Next day ,
The distance covered by the john in 8 hours = 270 miles
We need to calculate the average speed for both days
Using formula of the average speed
[tex]v_{avg}=\dfrac{D}{T}[/tex]
Where, D = total distance
T = total time
Put the value into the formula
[tex]v_{avg}=\dfrac{500+270}{10+8}[/tex]
[tex]v_{avg}=\dfrac{770}{18}[/tex]
[tex]v_{avg}=42.77\ miles/hr[/tex]
Hence, The average speed for both days, while driving is 42.77 miles/hr.
