Which car traveled a greater distance? Car A traveled 25 miles/hour for 3 hours, stopped for an hour, and then traveled 35 miles/hour for 4 hours. Car B traveled an average speed of 43 miles/hour for 5 hours. Explain your answer.

car b

Explanation:

a: 45.9 meters

b: 4.29 seconds

step-by-step explanation:

a: h(t)=1/2(-9.8)(3)^2+0(3)+90

h(t)=-4.9(3)^2+90

h(t)=-44.1+90

h(t)=45.9 meters

b: 0=1/2(-9.8)(t^2)+0t+90

0=-4.9t^2+90

-90=-4.9t^2

18.37=t^2

t=4.29 seconds

in the second question, the numbers aren't exact, but they're a close approximation.
