Jane took a train traveling at an average speed of 60 mph from Boston, MA to Washington, D.C. The trip took 8 hours. On her way back to Boston, Jane decides to take an express train that travels at an average speed of 75 mph. How long will the trip home take?

Respuesta :

Answer:

6.4 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The question gave us the following details:

Average speed = 60mph

Time spent on trip = 8 hours

Average speed of express train on way back = 75mph

T = distance/speed

D = distance

V = speed

T = d/v

d = v(t)

d = 60 x 8

= 480

Such that

480/75

= 6.4 hours.

That is 6 hours 40 minutes is the length of time it would take on the trip home.

Thank you!
