  1. Answer: 38km/hr

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Distance travelled at 40km/hr

    = 40×3

    =120km

    Distance travelled at 35km/hr

    =35×2= 70km

    Therefore total distance travelled= 120+70=190km

    Total time taken= 3+2=5hr

    Therefore average speed=

    Total distance/total time

    =190/5

    =38km/hr

  2. Answer:

    38 kilometer per hour

    Step-by-step explanation:

    with first speed for 3 hours; 40*3 = 120 kilometers

    and with 35 km/hr for 2 hours: 35*2=70 kilometers

    total travel: 120+70= 190 kilometers

    total time: 3 + 2 = 5 hours

    the average speed= 190/5 = 38 kilometer per hour
