please HELP

Answer 1

Answer:281


Step by step explanation: We know that 2 and a half hours is 150
minutes. If we divide 215 by 150, we get 1.43 miles per minute. We can multiply that by 60 to get 86 Miles Per Hour. She drives 2 Miles Per Hour faster for the next 3/4 hour. This means she drives 88 MPH for the next 3/4 hour. So, we can multiply 88 by 3/4 to get 66.
She drove 66 miles in 3/4 hour
She drove 215 miles in 2 1/2 hours
66+215 = 281 miles

Answer 2

281 miles

We know that 2 and a half hours is 150 minutes. If we divide 215 by 150, we get 1.43 miles per minute. We can multiply that by 60 to get 86 Miles Per Hour. She drives 2 Miles Per Hour faster for the next 3/4 hour. This means she drives 88 MPH for the next 3/4 hour. So, we can multiply 88 by 3/4 to get 66.

She drove 66 miles in 3/4 hour

She drove 215 miles in 2 1/2 hours

66+215 = 281 miles
