toward the ocean. Jaidee left one hour
later traveling at 30 mph in an effort to
catch up to Mofor. After traveling for five
hours Jaidee finally caught up. What was
Mofor's average speed?

Respuesta :

frika

Answer:

25 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Mofor:

Distance = D

Time = 1 + 5 = 6 hours

Speed = x mph

[tex]D=6x[/tex]

Jadiee:

Distance = D

Time = 5 hours

Speed = 30 mph

[tex]D=30\cdot 5\\ \\D=150\ miles[/tex]

Hence,

[tex]6x=150\\ \\x=\dfrac{150}{6}\\ \\x=25\ mph[/tex]
