A vehicle averaged x miles per hour for 3/2 hours and y miles per hour for 5/2 hours on a nonstop trip of d miles. What was the average speed, in miles per hour, for the entire trip?

(1) x = y + 10
(2) d = 255


\(Average Speed = \frac{Total Distance}{Total Time}\)

From the stem we get

\(d = \frac{3x}{2}+\frac{5y}{2}\)
t = 4

Statement 1 : x = y+10 ----> This does not give us the value for total distance. Insufficient

Statement 2 : d=225 ------> We have total time from stem and total distance from statement 2 . Sufficient

(1) x = y + 10
(2) d = 255

speed x mph= 2d/3 and ymph= 2d/3
avg speed = 2d/4 = d/2
#1
no info of d insufficient
#2
d=225
sufficeint
IMO B
