Answer:

Distance = 70 + 55 = 125 kilometers

Time = 4 + 3 = 7 hours

Rate = Distance / Time

Rate = 125 / 7 = 17.8571428571 kilometers per hour

The average speed:

[tex]v=\dfrac{total\ distance}{total time}[/tex]

We have

total distance = 70 km + 55 km = 125 km

total time = 4 h + 3 h = 7 h

The average speed:

[tex]v=\dfrac{125\ km}{7\ km}\approx18\ \dfrac{km}{h}[/tex]
