Answer:

  78 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the speed of the slower car. The total speed of the two cars is their closing speed:

  (s) + (s+14 km/h) = (340 km)/(2 h)

  2s + 14 km/h = 170 km/h . . . . . simplify

  s + 7 km/h = 85 km/h . . . . . . . . divide by 2

  s = 78 km/h . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 7 km/h

The rate of the slower car is 78 km/h.
