Given:
t A = 2.4 h
t B = 4 h
v A = 22 + v B

Solution:
Distance A and distance B is the same, distance could be defined using formula d = v × t
d A = d B
(v A × t A) = (v B × t B)

plug in the numbers
v A × 2.4 = v B × 4
(22 + vB) × 2.4 = 4 vB

remove the parenthesis using distributive property
(22 × 2.4) + (2.4 × vB) = 4vB
52.8 + 2.4vB = 4vB
add like terms
52.8 = 4vB - 2.4vB
52.8 = 1.6vB
52.8/1.6 = vB
vB = 33
the speed of car B is 33 mph

vA = 22 + vB
vA = 22 + 33
vA = 55
the speed of car A is 55 mph

KIM [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

J = (1/3)M + 2 <=== ur expression would be : (1/3)M + 2

A = 2J - 5

if marcella is 63....

J = (1/3 * 63) + 2                              A = 2J - 5

J = 63/3 + 2                                    A = 2(23) - 5

J = 21 + 2                                        A = 46 - 5

J = 23 <== justin's age                   A = 41 <=== Aimee's age
