Question

Not sure how to figure this out, help please

Answer 1

The second bus is traveling at a speed of 33.3 miles per hour.

Given that the speed of first bus is 60 miles per hour , distance between both the buses is 700 miles after 8 hour.

We are required to find the speed of second car which is heading towards south.

If first car is travelling at a speed of 60 miles per hour then the distance of first car after 8 hours is 60*8=480 miles.

We have been given that the distance between both the cars after 8 hours is 700 miles,So,

Distance of second car after 8 hours=700-480=220 miles.

We know that the speed is equal to distance divided by time.

We know that we have calculated distance after 8 hours so the speed of second car will be =20/6

=33.3 miles per hour

Hence the speed of second car which is heading towards south is 33.3 miles per hour.
