Answer:

-10miles/hr²

Explanation:

a = ∆v/∆t

Where:

a = acceleration (miles/hr²)

∆V = change in velocity (miles/hr)

t = time (hour)

The change in time is from 2:00 - 4:00 ∆t = 2 hours.

The distance covered is as follows: 20miles/hour - 40 miles/hr

∆v = -20miles/hr

Using a = ∆v/∆t

a = -20/2

a = -10miles/hr²
