Explanation:

See the attachment for the details.  A right triangle is formed to find the hypotenuse of the two legs consisting of the actual driving distances and times.  The hypotenuse gives the vector information for the displacement at the end of 8 hours of driving.  

The individual driving times and distances are summed to provide:

(a) How far did he travel?

103 km

(b) What was his average speed?

12.88 km/h

(c) What was his displacement?

73.82 km

(d) What was his average velocity?
