Answer

46.4 mph

Work Step by Step

You have to find the miles per hour during the 10 hours. You have to find the number of miles traveled during the first 6 hours so 6*44=264. So 264 miles were traveled in the first 6 hours. The next 4 hours, 200 miles were traveled because 4*50=200. Then divide the number of total miles by the total number of hours $\frac{200+264}{10}$=46.4.So it is 46.4 miles per hour.
