it takes engineer 3 hrs to drive to his brother's house at an average of 50 miles per hour. if he takes same route home, but his average speed of 60 miles per hour, what is the time, in hours, that it takes him to drive home?​

t2 = 2.5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance is the same.

d = r * t

The rates and times are different so

t1 = 3 hours

t2 = X

r1 = 50 mph

r2 = 60 mph

r1 * t1 = r2*t2

50 * 3 = 60 * t2

150 = 60 * t2

150 / 60 = t2

t2 = 2.5

Travel Time is 2 hours & 30 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Original Journey Time is 3 hours, Speed is 50 mph, Distance is 150 miles

Original Distance is 150 miles, New Speed is 60 mph.

Also Combined Distance was 300 miles, Combined Time was 5 hours & 30 minutes. therefore: Average Speed for complete round trip is 54. 54 mph

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
