First, you must add the two rates together, since the object are heading together: 2000 + 1000 = 3000 Next, you simply divide that by 60 to find the rate of miles per minute: 3000 / 60 = 50 50 miles is going to be your answer since this is the last minute before impact. This means that in another minute, they will travel 50 more miles and collide
The answer is no solution. First you simplify both sides of the equation... Then you subtract 6x from both sides. And lastly you subtract 6 from both sides. Leaving you with no solutions.
