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
<h2>Steps:</h2>
So for this, we will be completing the square to solve for m. Firstly, subtract 8 on both sides:

Next, divide both sides by 2:

Next, we want to make the left side of the equation a perfect square. To find the constant of this perfect square, divide the m coefficient by 2, then square the quotient. In this case:
-8 ÷ 2 = -4, (-4)² = 16
Add 16 to both sides of the equation:

Next, factor the left side:

Next, square root both sides of the equation:

Next, add 4 to both sides of the equation:

Now, while this is your answer, you can further simplify the radical using the product rule of radicals:
- Product rule of radicals: √ab = √a × √b
√12 = √4 × √3 = 2√3.

<h2>Answer:</h2>
In exact form, your answer is 
In approximate form, your answers are (rounded to the hundreths) 
The digit in the tens place is 10 times bigger than the digit in the ones place
A = 7x, c = 4x, s = 3x
a = s+52
7x = 3x+52
4x = 52
x = 13
c = 4x = 52
Caroline gets 52.
