If you traveled one mile at a speed of 100 miles per hour, and another mile at a speed of 1 mile per hour, your average speed would not be (100 mph+1mph)/2 or 50.5 mph. what would be your average speed? (hint: what is the total distance and total time? ) okay so.. how would i set up this problem and solve properly? maybe it's just me, but the way this is worded is throwing me off. any is greatly appreciated! < 3

The average speed is 1.98 mile per hour.

Explanation:

you traveled one mile at a speed of 100 miles per hour

So, the distance travelled by you is 1 mile

The speed is given by,

Speed = distance/ time

time = distance / speed

time = 1 / 100

time = 0.01 hour

Now next mile you travel at speed 1 mile per hour.

The speed is given by,

Speed = distance/ time

time = distance / speed

time = 1 / 1

time = 1 hour

Total distance = 1 mile + 1 mile = 2 mile

Total time = 1 hour + 0.01 hour = 1.01 hour

Average speed is given by,

Average speed =

Average speed =

Average speed = 1.98 mile per hour

The average speed is 1.98 mile per hour.

answer: the metamorphic rocks are formed when they are exposed to high pressure and high temperatures. this happens when one of the earth's plates comes in contact with the other plate by traveling in opposite directions, straight into each other or slipping under one another. the friction that is caused by this activity results in   melting of rocks and when it cools they are known as metamorphic rocks. this process needs a controlled amount of pressure and temperature otherwise it may turn into magma.
