To find the average speed of the car over the entire journey, we will break the problem down into steps based on the information provided. ### Step 1: Understand the time ratio and total time The car accelerates, moves at constant speed, and then decelerates. The time ratios for these three phases are given as 1:4:2. Let the time taken for acceleration be \( t_1 = x \), for constant speed be \( t_2 = 4x \), and for deceleration be \( t_3 = 2x \). The total time \( T \) for the journey is: ...
