Step-by-step explanation:
Before traffic cleared:
distance = 30 miles
average speed = s
time = t
d = st
30 = st
After traffic cleared:
distance = 176 miles
average speed = s + 29
time = 6 - t
d = st
176 = (s + 29)(6 - t)
30 = st
s = 30/t
176 = (30/t + 29)(6 - t)
176t = (30 + 29t)(6 - t)
176t = 180 - 30t + 174t - 29t^2
29t^2 + 32t - 180 = 0
(29t + 90)(t - 2) = 0
t = -90/29 or t = 2
Time must be a positive number, so we discard the solution t = -90/29.
t = 2
30 = st
30 = s * 2
s = 15
15 mph
