Answer:
d=32!!!
Step-by-step explanation:
So first rewrite it as an equation: d/4+12=20
d/4+12=20 then subtract 12 from both sides to balance the equation
d/4=8 so multply both sides by 4 to isolate the variable, 4(d/4)=d =d and 8x4=32, so d=32
Let’s call the speed of the slower car S, then the speed of the other is S+10mph.
At 5pm they have been travelling for 3 hours. The slower car travels a distance 3S and the faster one 3(S+10).
But the two distances must add up to 240 miles so 3S+3(S+10)=240, 3S+3S+30=240, 6S=210, S=35 mph. The faster car’s speed is 45mph. We can see that 3S is the same distance as 3x, so x=S=35 mph, and the distance the faster car travels is 3×45=135 miles.
