please ASAP distance between a to b is 120 miles.car travels from a to b @ 60 miles per hr and returns from b to a along the same route @40 miles per hr.what is the average speed of the round trip?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

\(\huge\text {Average speed}\) = \(\huge\frac{Total~distance}{Total~time~taken}\)

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Time taken in going from a to b = 120/60=2hr

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Time taken in coming back = 120/40=3hr

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Total time taken in complete round trip= 2+3=5hr, Total distance travelled in complete round trip= 120*2=240

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Average speed=240/5=48miles/hr

OpenStudy (abhisar):
