After driving for 2.2 hours (2 hours and 12 mintues), marcos' total distance traveled was 153 miles. at what constant speed (in miles per hour) would he have to travel for the last 5 minutes in order to complete the 155 mile drive in 2 hours and 17 minutes?

Answer 1

Time = Distance/Speed
Time = 153/70 

Time = 2.19 hours.
Time = 2 hours 11 minutes.

Answer 2

Answer:

24 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

So in order to calculate this you just need to use the formula for the speed:

Speed=Distance/time

Speed= 2 miles/ 5 minutes

Speed= 2 miles/,083 hours

Speed= 24

So the speed at the final 5 minutes will be 24 miles per hour.
