A motorcyclist rode at 60 mph for 2 hours and then 65 mph for 1 hour. What is the total distance traveled?

150 miles
165 miles
180 miles
185 miles

The correct answer is: 185 miles

To find the total distance traveled, you can break down the journey into two parts based on the speed and time for each segment. First, calculate the distance traveled during the first part of the ride at 60 mph for 2 hours. The distance formula is: Distance = Speed × Time For the first segment: - Speed = 60 mph - Time = 2 hours By applying the formula, you get: Distance = 60 mph × 2 hours = 120 miles. Next, calculate the distance for the second part of the ride at 65 mph for 1 hour: For this segment: - Speed = 65 mph - Time = 1 hour Using the same distance formula: Distance = 65 mph × 1 hour = 65 miles. Now, add the distances from both segments together to determine the total distance traveled: Total Distance = 120 miles + 65 miles = 185 miles. This total is consistent with the correct answer provided.
