Desiree drove north for 30 minutes at 50 miles per hour. then, she drove south for 60 minutes at 20 miles per hours. how far and in what direction is desiree from where she started?

Step-by-step explanation:

The scenario is illustrated in the attached photo.

Desiree drove north for 30 minutes at 50 miles per hour.

Distance = speed × time

Distance travelled by Desiree to the north is 50 × 30 = 1500 miles

Distance travelled by Desiree back from the north and to the south is

60 × 20 = 1500 miles

She started from south and drove 1500 miles towards the north. She returned by driving 1200 miles again towards south . Distance of Desiree from where she started will be 1500 - 1200 = 300 miles.

She is 300 miles from her starting position and she is in the southern direction.
