Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of parking lot = 20 feets

Speed of tortoise which starts at the edge = 6 feets per minute

Speed of tortoise which starts 4 feets from the edge = 2 feets per minute

Equation to represent when they will be in the same spot.

Distance = speed * time

Distance of Tortoise at edge = 6ft/min * t = 6t - - (1)

Distance of the other tortoise = (4 + 2t) - - - (2)

Equating both (1) and (2)

6t = 4 + 2t

6t - 2t = 4

4t = 4

t = 4/4

t = 1

Hence, they'll be at the same spot after 1 minute.
