steve traveled the first 2 hours of his journey at 35 mph and the remaining 3 hours of his journey at 80 mph . what is his average speed for the entire journey ?
time of meeting = distance / relative speed = 36 / 8 + 4 = 36 / 12 = 3 hrs after 5 am = 8 am answer is a
a ) 8 am , b ) 6 am , c ) 7 am , d ) 10 am , e ) 8 pm

in 1979 approximately 1 / 3 of the 32.3 million airline passengers traveling to or from the united states used kennedy airport . if the number of such passengers that used miami airport was 1 / 2 the number that used kennedy airport and 4 times the number that used logan airport , approximately how many millions of these passengers used logan airport that year ?
n = 4 k + 1 = 7 j + 3 let ' s start at 1 = 4 ( 0 ) + 1 and keep adding 4 until we find a number in the form 7 j + 3 . 1 , 5 , 9 , 13 , 17 = 7 ( 2 ) + 3 the next such number is 17 + 4 * 7 = 45 . 17 + 45 = 62 the answer is c .
a ) 54 , b ) 58 , c ) 62 , d ) 66 , e ) 70
