<em><u>Speed of skyler is 204 mph and speed of marcus is 212 mph</u></em>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Skyler is 104 miles away from Marcus
Therefore,
Distance = 104 miles
They meet after 4 hours
Time taken = 4 hours
Let "x" be the speed of sklyer
Marcus travels 8 mph faster than skyler
Therefore,
Speed of marcus = 8 + x
They are traveling towards each other
Since they are traveling towards each other, we can add up their speeds
Speed = x + 8 + x = 2x + 8
<em><u>The distance is given by formula:</u></em>
Thus speed of skyler = x = 204 mph
Speed of marcus = 8 + x = 8 + 204 = 212 mph
Thus speed of skyler is 204 mph and speed of marcus is 212 mph
