Beth's speed was 60 mph.
<h3>
What is speed?</h3>
- The speed (commonly referred to as v) of an object in everyday use and kinematics is the magnitude of the change in its position over time or the magnitude of the change in its position per unit of time; it is thus a scalar quantity.
- The distance traveled by an object in a time interval is divided by the duration of the interval; the instantaneous speed is the limit of the average speed as the duration of the time interval approaches zero.
- Velocity is not the same as speed.
To find what was Beth's speed:
Beth's data:
- time = 2 hrs; rate = r mph; distance = r×t = 2r miles
Tim's data:
- time = 1 hr; rate = r-6 mph; distance = r-6 miles
Equation:
- distance + distance = 174 miles
So,
- 2r + r - 6 = 174
- 3r - 6 = 174
- 3r = 180
- r = 60 mph (Beth's rate)
- r-6 = 54 mph (Tims's rate)
Therefore, Beth's speed was 60 mph.

This really depends on the fraction; if there are variables in the equation, if they are full numbers,etc. I'd really recommend looking up khan academy on YouTube and that will really help you out!
Answer:
yes it is and there has to be 20 characters so gonna type random stuff after
74.4 is the answer.
hope this helps.
These are linear equations that can be solved simultaneously;
5m+3n=41
3m-6n=9 (multiplying the first equation by 3 and the second by 5)
15m+9n=123
15m-30n= 45 (subtracting the two equations)
39n = 78
n = 2,
and for m, 3m = 9+6(2)
= 21
m = 7
Therefore, n=2 and m=7
