Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance "D" = rate × time

or d = r × t.

Tad and his buddies drove to the orange bowl(while going) -50mph

Tad and his buddies while returning from a trip -75mph

Total round trip = 12 hours

Distance while going = 50 x t

Distance while returning = 75 (12 - t)

50t = 75(12 -t)

50t = 900 -75t

50t + 75t = 900

125t = 900

t = 900/125

t= 7.2

The total number of hours it takes Tad and his buddies to drive to the orange bowl is 7.2 hours.
