A man drove for 4 hours at a certain speed, he then doubled his speed and drove for another 3 hours. Although he covered 600 kilometers. At what speed did he drive for the last 3 hours?

A.

120km/hr

B.

60km/hr

C.

670km/hr

D.

40km/hr

Correct answer is B

Speed = distancetime

let x represent the speed, d represent distance

x = d4

d = 4x

2x = 600d3

6x = 600 - d

6x = 600 - 4x

10x = 600

x = 60010

= 60km/hr
