To determine which statement is true, we need to compare the speed of each truck. Speed is calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the number of hours driven.
For Truck 1, the speed can be calculated as follows:
Speed of Truck 1 = Number of Miles Traveled / Number of Hours Driven
= 195 / 3
= 65 miles per hour
For Truck 2, the speed can be calculated as follows:
Speed of Truck 2 = Number of Miles Traveled / Number of Hours Driven
= 75 / 1.5
= 50 miles per hour
For Truck 3, the speed can be calculated as follows:
Speed of Truck 3 = Number of Miles Traveled / Number of Hours Driven
= 30 / 0.5
= 60 miles per hour
Based on these calculations, we can see that Trucks 1 and 2 have different speeds. Therefore, the correct statement is:
Trucks 1 and 2 are traveling at the same rate of speed, but Truck 3 is traveling more slowly.
