Answer:
100km/hr
Explanation:
From the problem statement we know that distance of the trip is 115km
Expected time for the trip = 1.2hrs
→ If she spends the first half-hour going 90km/hr,
Here time = 0.5hr
speed = 90km/hr
The distance covered;
Distance covered = Speed x time
Distance covered = 90 x 0.5 = 45km
→The remaining distance will be:
Total distance - distance covered
115km - 45km = 70km
→ The remaining time;
1.2hr - 0.5hr = 0.7hr
Speed = [tex]\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]
Insert the parameters and solve;
Speed = [tex]\frac{70}{0.7}[/tex] = 100km/hr
For the remaining lap, the tourist must travel at a rate of 100km/hr to catch up.
