75* = 40*.2 + x*.8

75 = 8 + .8x

67 = .8x

67/.8 = x

83.75 = x

she averaged 83.75 km/h

i’m hoping it extremely is sweet. i think of it is, regardless of if it extremely is been a whilst on account that college for me. 75kph x 5 = 375km 375km – 40km (first 20%) = 335km for the final 80% of holiday. 335 divided by using 4 = 80 3.seventy 5 km for the final area of the holiday.
