1) Just gives the average speed for the entire journey. The car could have been going at 150mph or 90 mph at 8:00am. Insufficient.
2) We know the car was moving at a constant speed, but no information about speed. Insufficient.
Taken together, the car moved at a constant speed of 120mph, therefore, the car was going at 120mph at 8:00am. Sufficient.
Ans C.
