The rate of Car A is x
The rate of Car B is x - 5
They travel the same distance. So we can make an equation:
4(x) = 4.5(x-5)
Solve for x.
4(x) = 4.5(x-5)
4x = 4.5x - 22.5
Subtract 4.5x on both sides
-0.5x = -22.5
Divide by -0.5 on both sides
x = 45
But we want the speed of Car B which is x - 5
So Car B's speed is 45 - 5 = 40
Your answer is 40

D 144 in hope this helps you on your test
We know that: <span>3(x-1)^2-162=0
or (x-1)</span>²= 162:3
and (x-1)²= 54
we <span>take the square root of both sides
* x-1=</span>√54= 3√6 or x=1+3√6
* x-1= -<span>√54= -3√6 or x=1-3√6
This equation has 2 solutions</span>
K/11 = 7
multiply 11 to both sides
K/11 (11) = 7(11)
multiply 7 and eleven together
K = 7(11)
Answer
K = 77
77 is your answer
