a car averages 30 miles per hour for the first 6 hours of a trip and averages 46 miles per hour for each additional hour of travel time . if the average speed for the entire trip is 34 miles per hour , how many hours long is the trip ?
"let t be the total time of the trip . 30 * 6 + 46 ( t - 6 ) = 34 t 12 t = 276 - 180 t = 8 the answer is a ."
add(divide(subtract(multiply(34, 6), multiply(30, 6)), subtract(46, 34)), 6)
