Person a can walk 5 miles in an hour.
Person b can walk 3 miles in an hour.
They are 12 miles apart, and after an hour they have covered 8 miles.
8:1 = 12:x
8x = 12
x = 1.5
After an hour and a half, they will meet.
Check:
5 miles : 1 hour = 7.5 miles : 1.5 hours
3 miles : 1 hour = 4.5 miles : 1.5 hours
Together, they should have covered 12 miles.
7.5 + 4.5 = 12
It takes 1.5 hours to meet eachother.

X+y = 4, therefore y = 4-x when you rearrange the equation.
You can subsitute this in: x-(4-x) = 6
-4+x = 6-x
x=10-x
2x = 10
x = 5
Substitute x into the previous equation:
5+y = 4
y = 4-5
y = -1
Not sure if this is right or not, but I chose 125.11 after I typed in the equation, haven’t used R-value at all. Will comment if correct — APEX
