d=vt
360=(v_{s})(3)+(v_{n})(3)
360=(v_{s})(3)+((v_{s}-10)(3)
360=3v_{s}+3v_{s}-30
390=6v_{s}
v_{s}=\frac{390}{6}=65
v_{n}=v_{s}-10=65-10=55

The south car is traveling at 65mph. The north car is traveling at 55mph.

3x +3(x-10) = 360

3x +3x-30 =360

6x-30 =360

6x=390

X = 390/6 = 65

65-10 =55

<span> One car was driving 65 mph</span>

<span> The other was 55 mph</span>
