Question

Two cars start at the same time, but travel in opposite directions. One car's average speed is 60 miles per hour (mph). At the end of 4 hours, the two cars are 440 miles apart. Find the average speed in mph of the other car.

Answer 1

Answer:

50mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok. So:

In 4 hours, the car that goes 60 mph would be 240 miles away. Meaning that the other car must have moved 440-240=200 miles 200 divided by 4 is 50.

So the car went 50mph

Answer 2

Answer:

I think it would be about 50 mph
