Let x be the distance from Syracuse where they pass. The first car travels a distance of x in time x/65 while the second car travels a distance 240-x in time (240-x)/55. They pass at the same time after leaving their starting points so x/65=(240-x)/55.
Cross-multiplying we get: 55x=65(240-x)=15600-65x, 120x=15600, x=15600/120=130 miles.
They pass 130 miles from Syracuse.
Answer:
4 (20) + 6(6) = 120
4(20) + 4 (6) = 100
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to write a system of equations with the information given:
Build time (hours) = 4c + 6a = 120
Test time (hours) = 4c + 4 a = 100
Where c represents the number of child bikes and a represents adult bikes.
So, for 20 child bikes and 6 adult bikes:
4 (20) + 6(6) = 120
4(20) + 4 (6) = 100
