    Question Maxx Trivia!

    Ok, here's my first one for ya, its a math questions so all you programmers out there should get it.

    You are driving in a car to a party, and our only assumption is that you are free to drive at any speed you choose - no traffic jams or hitting little woodland creatures or anything like that. For the first half of the journey (i.e.half the distance) you drive at 20 miles per hour. You then realise that this is all taking way too long, and that you are going to be late for the party. You decide that you will increase your speed so that your overall average speed for the whole trip will be 40 miles per hour. How fast do you have to drive for the remaining part of your trip in order for your average speed for the whole trip to be 40 miles per hour?

    Talk out loud if you wish..

    Well, suppose that the distance you need to travel is 80 miles. At 20 miles per hour, you will get halfway (40 miles) after 2 hours. To have an average speed of 40 miles per hour, you must go all 80 miles in 2 hours. For the remainder of the trip you have to go Infinite speed because you already used up your 2 hours.

    No, it should be moved back down to the 113th page of GD where it belongs.

    As part of becoming a moderator, I was required to submit part of my mind to Shadowblazer's will. The resultant psychic link between us provides me with access to such information.
