<span>The pair of integers that I chose are:
(a) sum is –3
5 + (-8) = -3
(b) difference is –5
2 - 7 = -5
(c) difference is 2
14 -12 = 2
(d) sum is 0
2 - 2 = 0</span>
We know that the first cyclist has traveled 24.2 km at a speed of 10 km/h. Lets use the equation

to find the time of the first cyclist:


So, we know that she has traveled for 2.42 hours.
We also know that after she has traveled for 2.42 hours another<span> cyclist sets out in the same direction, so if </span>

represents the time of our first cyclist, <span>the time of our second cyclist will be </span>

.
Now we are going to use the equation

to relate the speeds and times of the two cyclist:
For the first one:

equation (1)
For the second one:

equation (2)
Replace (1) in (2)

The only thing left now is solve for

:




We can conclude that the second cyclist will catch up the first cyclist after
3.63 hours.
( - 0.625, - 1.75 )
so since the first equation is already simplified , just replace it in the second equation
