The distance between Car A and car B,When Car A crosses the start line is:
distance =speed car B* time
distance=(15 m/s)(3 s)=45 m
Distance traveled by car A =x, (when the car B is at the same distance from the start line)
time of car A=t
x=10 m/st ⇒ x=10t (1)
Distance traveled by car B=x
time of car B=t-3
x=15(t-3) (2)
With the equations (1) and (2) we make a system of equations:
x=10t
x=15(t-3)
We solve this system of equations:
10t=15(t-3)
10t=15t-45
-5t=-45
t=-45 / -5
t=9
t-3=9-3=6
x=10 t=10 (9)=90
Answer: The time would be 9 seconds for Car A and 6 seconds for car B and the distance would be 90 meters.

Answer:
665
Step-by-step explanation:
The range is the difference between the smallest and highest numbers in a list or set. To find the range, first put all the numbers in order. Then subtract (take away) the lowest number from the highest. The answer gives you the range of the list.
