Answer: The running for movie A is 81 minutes.

The running for movie B is 47 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the running for movie A.

Let y represent the running for movie B.

The running time for movie A is 34 minutes more than twice the running time for movie B.

This means that

x = y + 34

If the running time for movie A is subtracted from triple the running time for movie B, the result is 60 minutes. This means that

3y - x = 60 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = y + 34 into equation 1, it becomes

3y - (y + 34) = 60

3y - y - 34 = 60

2y = 60 + 34

2y = 94

y = 94/2

y = 47

x = y + 34 = 47 + 34

x = 81
