AI Generated Solution

To find the average speed of the bus over its entire journey, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the total distance and segments Let the total distance traveled by the bus be \( S \). The bus covers this distance in three equal segments, each of length \( \frac{S}{3} \). ### Step 2: Identify the speeds for each segment The speeds for each segment are: - From A to C (first segment): \( v_1 = 60 \) km/hr ...
