1 answer:
Answer:
Speed of Carol is 78 mph and that of Steve is 84 mph.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the speed of Carol is x mph and that of Steve is (x + 6) mph.
If they move towards each other with that speed, then the resultant speed will be (x + x + 6) = (2x + 6) mph
With this resultant speed, they cover 405 miles in 2.5 hours.
So,
⇒ 2x = 156
⇒ x = 78 mph
So, speed of Carol is 78 mph and that of Steve is (78 + 6) = 84 mph. (Answer)

Answer:
day 0, day 120
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to find the value of x that makes both y-values be the same:
y = y
30x +10 = -x^2 +150x +10
x^2-120x = 0 . . . . subtract the right side of the equation
x(x -120) = 0 . . . . . factor
Values of x that make this true are x=0 and x=120.
The same number of each car was sold on day 0 and day 120.
