Respuesta :

Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

6 Hours is Jose's drive time.

What is the average speed?

The overall distance the object covers in a given amount of time is its average speed. A scalar value represents the average speed. It has no direction and is indicated by the magnitude.

Given

D=RT

D=40T

T=D/40 FOR JOSE.

D=48*5 FOR ROB.

D=240 Miles from the white house to the recycling plant.

240=40T

T=240/40

T=6 Hours is Jose's drive time.
