C. 12 /3 go Brainly! Have Fun
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
4 + 12.5 > 11x - 3.5 - 2x
16.5 = 5.5x
16.5/5.5 = x
You mean 2x3x12? if yes, it is 72.
The distance between Car A and car B,When Car A crosses the start line is:
distance =speed car B* time
distance=(15 m/s)(3 s)=45 m
Distance traveled by car A =x, (when the car B is at the same distance from the start line)
time of car A=t
x=10 m/st ⇒ x=10t (1)
Distance traveled by car B=x
time of car B=t-3
x=15(t-3) (2)
With the equations (1) and (2) we make a system of equations:
x=10t
x=15(t-3)
We solve this system of equations:
10t=15(t-3)
10t=15t-45
-5t=-45
t=-45 / -5
t=9
t-3=9-3=6
x=10 t=10 (9)=90
Answer: The time would be 9 seconds for Car A and 6 seconds for car B and the distance would be 90 meters.
