how long did it take Betty to drive nonstop on a trip from her home to Denver, Colorado?
1, If Betty's average speed for the trip had been 1 1/2 times as fast, the trip would have taken 2 hours.
2. Betty's average speed for the trip was 50 miles per hour.

Thanks

Ans A here.

From 1: vt=1.5v*2 (here v =avg.speed; t=time and distance=speed*time)

=>t=2*1.5 so sufficient

From 2: only avg. speed is given, so insufficient
