Total Time                                                                                      = (1430 - 0600) + (1900 - 1630)  + 2 h                                            = 8 h 30 min + 2 h 30 min + 2 h                                                        = 13 h

Total Distance                                                                                = (70 x ) + (120 x )                                                                  = 595 + 300                                                                                   = 895 km

Question 1

Average Speed For Whole Journey                                          = km/h                                                                                    = 68 km/h

Question 2

(a) Time at which the bus and car met                                       = 0800 + [810 / ( 50 + 85 )]                                                    = 0800 + 6 h                                                                           = 1400

(b) Distance covered by the bus when it met the car                 = 50 x 6                                                                                 = 300 km

(c) (i) Speed which the car must travel to reach Town T at 1630 = 300 / ( 1630 - 1400 )                                                  = 300 / h                                                                           = 300 x h                                                                           = 120 km/h

    (ii) Average Speed of the Car                                             = 810 km / 8 h                                                                        = 101.25 km/h
