41.3K Views
John was gifted a new Hayabusa. He drove x miles at 55mph. Then he drove x+20 miles at 40mps. He drove his bike for 100 minutes. How much distance did he travel?
Assumption: The ‘mps‘ in the ’40 mps’ stands for metres per second (rather than miles per second, which is impossible on a bike)
Ans: 118.325 miles
49.162 miles at 55mph and 69.162 miles at 40mps (~ 89.497 miles per hour)
Time taken for the first 49.162 miles at 55mph = 0.894 Hrs
Time for next 69.162 miles at 89.497 mph = 0.773 Hrs.
Total time travelled = 1.667 hrs ~ 100 min
