Start with assigning each person with a variable to represent their height
Ebi: e
Jose: j
Derell: d
Asami: a
Ebi'd height was 2.5 cm greater than Jose's height
j + 2.5 = e
Jose's height was 3.1 cm greater than Derell's
d + 3.1 = j
Derell's height is 0.4 cm less than Asami's height
a - 0.4 = d
Ebi is 162.5 cm tall
e = 162.5
So, plug in 162.5 into any of the above equations were there is a variable of e
j + 2.5 = e
j + 2.5 = 162.5
Subtract 2.5 from both sides of the equation
j = 160 cm
Jose's height is 160 cm
Now, plug in 160 into any of the above equations where there is a j
d + 3.1 = j
d + 3.1 = 160
Subtract 3.1 from both sides of the equation
d = 156.9 cm
Derell's height 156.9 cm
so, plug in 156.9 into any of the above equations where there is a d
a - 0.4 = d
a - 0.4 = 156.9
Add 0.4 on both sides of the equation
a = 157.3 cm
Asami's height is 157.3 cm
The first two is worth 2,000 and the second is worth 200.
For any equation,
assume solution of a form, 
Which leads to,
Simplify to,
Then find solutions,
For non repeated real root y, we have a form of,
Following up,
For two non repeated complex roots 
where,
and,
the general solution has a form of,
Or in this case,
Now we just refine and get,

Answer:
- Josh: 32 mph, 64 mi
- Greg: 64 mph, 320 mi
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent Josh's rate of travel in miles per hour. After 2 hours, his distance is ...
distance = speed · time
distance = x · 2 = 2x
Then 2x is Greg's rate of travel After 5 hours, his distance is ...
distance = speed · time
distance = (2x) · 5 = 10x
The distance they are apart is ...
10x -2x = 256
8x = 256
x = 32
__
Josh's rate: 32 miles per hour; Josh's distance = (2 h)(32 mi/h) = 64 miles.
Greg's rate: (32 mi/h)·2 = 64 mi/h; Greg's distance = (5 h)(64 mi/h) = 320 miles.
<em>__</em>
<em>Check</em>: 320 miles - 64 miles = 256 miles . . . . correct separation
