Firstly, there is an airplane flight.

1450 miles / 350mph = 4.14h

Secondly, there is a bus travel.

4.14h + 0.5h = 4.64h

The answer is C.

Answer:


4.14h+0.5h=4.64h

Explanation:

It is given that Distance between 2 airports is 1,450 miles and average speed of airplane is 350 mph.

Travel time by bus after arrival at airport = 30 minutes

Now, Firstly there is an airplane flight, thus time taken by airplane will be:


t_(1)=\frac{1450\text{miles}}{350\text{miles per hour}}=4.14\text{hour}

Secondly, there is a bus travel., thus Travel time by bus after arrival at airport is:


t_(2)=30\text{minutes}

Therefore, total time taken in travel=time taken by airplane+time taken by bus

=
4.14h+0.5h=4.64h

Hence, option (C) is correct.
