Your are driving to Denver and you want your average speed to be 40mph. You initially take it slow and average 20mph for the first half of the distance. You suddenly realize how slow you are going and decide to speed up. How fast do you have to go for the remainder of the trip to average 40mph?

Does that take into account the three stoplights between me and Denver?
I dunno the answer, but I did manage to totally confuse myself.
Here's why...
I live 40 miles from Denver, so at 40mph it would take me 1 hour to get there. Since I drove 20mph for the first half of the trip, I went 20 miles and took an hour. So, my alotted time has expired, which means I'd have to teleport the last 20 miles in order to pull it off. Am I just an anomoly, or totally confused?
