Respuesta :

Answer:

part a and b

Step-by-step explanation:

b)It will take him longer to arrive

a)time = distance / speed

198/55 = 3.6  

3 hours and 36 minutes +2:30 = 6:06

Worked out Ibrahim's arrival time in London to be 3.6 hours. Since the average speed is lower, it will take him longer than 3.6 hours.

How to find speed?

Speed can be found using the following formula.

Speed = ditance/time

We can find the time taken by Ibrahim to travel from Swansea below:

Total distance = 198 miles

Average speed = 55 miles per hour

Speed = distance/time

55 = 198/time

time = 198/55

= 3.6 hours.

It is given that the coach has a lower average speed. This means that the coach will arrive in London in more than 3.6 hours.

Therefore, we have worked out Ibrahim's arrival time in London to be 3.6 hours. Since the average speed is lower, it will take him longer than 3.6 hours.
