Greta is taking a road trip from Cincinnati to San Francisco. On the first day, she drove 650 miles in 10 hours. On the second day, she got a later start and drove 540 miles in 8 hours. How many miles per hour faster was her average speed the second day?

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

the first day

distance= 650miles

time taken= 10 hours

speed= distance/time

speed= 650/10

speed= 65miles per hour

Step two:

the second day

distance= 540mile

time taken= 8 hours

speed= distance/time

speed= 540/8

speed= 67.5miles per hour

Step three:

the difference between the two speeds is =67.5-65= 2.5

therefore on the second day, the speed is 2.5 miles per hour faster

i do not know this sorry : (

none of the above.

for one of the equations to be used in the process, there has to be a term in the equation since squared is .

since there is only a term in the first equation, we cannot derive a from completing the square.

solving with completing the square
