Speed Me Up!Read and analyze each situation below and answer the questions that follow.Mario rides his motorcycle in going to school. He drives at an average speed of 30kilometers per hour. The distance between his house and the school is 15 kilometers.Every time he sees his best friend Jessica walking on the road, he invites her for aride and lowers his speed. On the other hand, he increases his speed when he wakesup late for school. 15 kilometersQuestions:a. How long does it take Mario to reach school considering his average speed?b. If x represents the time it takes Mario to drive to school with the given distance of15 kilometers, how will you represent the relationship of his speed (y) versus the time(x)?c. Mario's average speed as 30 kilometers per hour. Suppose Mario lowers his speedby 10 kilometers per hour, how long will he reach the school given the same distance?d. Suppose Mario's speed is unknown and represented by (x), he lowers his speed by10 kilometers per hour at a distance of 15 kilometers and reaches school at3hours,4-how will you write the equation to find his average speed (x)?e. Mario's average speed was 30 kilometers per hour. He plans to drive for another30 kilometers from school, how long will it take him to cover the whole distance(house to school to 30 kilometers from school)?f. If Mario drives another (x) kilometers from his school at an average speed of 30kilometers per hour and he plans to drive in at most 2 hours, how will you write theinequality to find the additional distance?

At 10:17 a.m., you pass a police car at 55 mph that is stopped on the freeway. You pass a second police car at 55 mph at 10:53 a.m., which is located 39 mi from the first police car. If the speed limit is 60 mph, can the police cite you for speeding? а. a. The total time between your two police car sightings was P hours. b. Your average speed between the two police car sightings was 8, mph. c. Can the police cite you for speeding? No, your average speed was less than the speed limit. CYes, since your average speed was more than the speed limit, there must have been somewhere within the 39 mi where you were driving more than 60 mph.
