The two laws of motion are

\text{Low:}\ d=v_lt\\\text{Sim:}\ d=v_st

Since Mr Sim's speed is 15 km/h less that Mr Low's, we have

\text{Low:}\ d=v_lt\\\text{Sim:}\ d=(v_l-15)t

Note that the distance d is the same for both equations, because they traveled the same path.

20 minutes is 1/3 of a hour, so at t=1/3 Mr Low traveled the whole distance, while at the same time Mr Sim traveled 4/5 of the distance:

\text{Low:}\ d=\dfrac{v_l}{3}\\\text{Sim:}\ \dfrac{4d}{5}=\dfrac{(v_l-15)}{3}

If we multiply Sim's equation by 5/4, we have

\text{Low:}\ d=\dfrac{v_l}{3}\\\text{Sim:}\ d=\dfrac{5(v_l-15)}{12}

Since the left hand sides are equal, we equal the right hand side as well:

\dfrac{v_l}{3}=\dfrac{5(v_l-15)}{12}

Multiply both sides by 12:

4v_l=5(v_l-15)

Expand the right hand side:

4v_l=5v_l-75 \iff v_l = 75

Which implies

v_s=v_l-15=75-15=60

Please help!!! 25 points or I’ll mark brainliest!!
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

The origin is (0, 0) so let's say we have (0, 5) we find that this point is 5 units away from the origin. We find that by subtracting the origin's y coordinate from our (0, 5) point's y coordinate. This method can be used for the x-axis too.
