Farrell · Answer 1

11:30

Step-by-step explanation:

So if the park is 100 miles away and the bus travels at 50 miles an hour, that means it would take 2 hours for them to reach the park. If your saying that they need to be at the park by 1:30 pm, then they have to start heading to the park 2 hours earlier, which would give you 11:30.

Carmen Park · Answer 2

They should start the trip at 11:30 AM

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it take a hour to travel 50 miles and the park is only 100 miles away divide 100/50 and you get 2. 2 is the number of hours it takes to complete the whole trip. Subtracting 2 hours from 1:30 gets you 11:30.
