Final answer:
Without the distance between Akron and Columbus, Ohio, we cannot determine the total distance, total time spent traveling, or the average speed for the entire trip, including the 2-hour stay in Columbus.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the question given by the student, we need to analyze and deduce the answers based on the information provided.
a) The total distance traveled for the round trip cannot be determined from the given information, as the distance between Akron, Ohio, and Columbus, Ohio is not provided. Typically, one would need to know the one-way distance and then multiply by two to find the total round-trip distance.
b) To calculate the total time the driver spent on the trip, one would divide the total distance traveled by the average speed. However, since the total distance is not provided, we cannot calculate the total time spent on the trip.
c) For the average speed for the entire trip, including the 2 hours spent in Columbus, we would need to know the total distance as well as the total time including the 2-hour stay. Without this information, we cannot determine the average speed.
d) If we knew the distance between Akron and Columbus, the time spent traveling from Akron to Columbus would be that distance divided by the average speed of 50 miles per hour.
In the absence of the essential distance data, the questions cannot be answered accurately. The student may need to provide more information or consult a map for the specific distances.
