"If you travel at a speed of 30mph in the 1st mile, how fast do you have to go in the second mile so you have an average speed of 60mph over the 2 mile stretch?"
The trick to this question is that you have to cover the whole first mile at 30 mph. If instead it had asked, "If you travel at a speed of 30mph for 1 minute, how fast do you have to go in the second minute so you have an average speed of 60mph over the 2 mile stretch?" In that case, the answer would be 90 mph.
