Dr. Hall that is exploratory scouts travel 32 miles in eight hours the next day they had traveled 49 miles so they increase the speed by 3 mph how long did it take them to travel the 49 miles

Answer: it took them 7 hours to travel 49 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The exploratory scouts travel 32 miles in eight hours.

Speed = distance/time

It means that the speed at which they travelled 32 miles is

32/8 = 4 miles per hour.

The next day they had traveled 49 miles so they increase the speed by 3 mph. It means that the speed at which they travelled 49 miles is

4 + 3 = 7 mph

Time = distance/speed

Therefore, the time it took them to travel the 49 miles is

49/7 = 7 hours
