<span>Let t=time Doreen travels; let r=rate of Doreen

                RATE * TIME = DIST.
        Sue | r+13      t-3       105
   Doreen |   r           t          64
 
Now solve the system:
(r+13)(t-3)=105
</span>r*t=64<span>
 
</span>r= \frac{64}{t} &#10;\\&#10;\\(\frac{64}{t} +13)(t-3)=105 &#10;\\&#10;\\64- \frac{192} {t}+13t-39-105=0&#10;\\&#10;\\13t- \frac{192} {t}-80=0&#10;\\&#10;\\ 13t^2-80t-192=0&#10;\\&#10;\\t_{1,2}= \frac{80\pm \sqrt{(-80)^2-4\times13(-192)} }{2\times13}= \frac{80\pm128}{26}  &#10;\\&#10;\\t=\frac{80+128}{26}  =8&#10;\\&#10;\\r=\frac{64}{t} =\frac{64}{8} =8<span>
             
Doreen: rate = 8 mph, time = 8 hours
Sue:  </span>rate = 21 mph, time = 5 hours<span>

vladimir2022 [97]
So difference means subtract
x-y=0
product means multipy
x times y=25

we see from x-y=0 that x=y
so
x times y=25
x times x=25
what number times itself=25?
answer is 5
x=5
x=y
y=5



then numbers ae 5 and 5
