Hey there! :D
Use the distributive property.
a(b+c)= ab+ac
6(9x+2)+2x
54x+12+2x
56x+ 12 <== equivalent expression

Answer:
You would win the race
Step-by-step explanation:
You would have to swim for 2 minutes and 40 seconds which is the same as 160 seconds.
The opponent would swim

Which is161.5 seconds
This means you would win
The distance, s = 40t₁ where t₁ is the time to complete the outward journey.
The same distance = vt₂ where t₂ is the time to complete the return journey at speed v.
For the whole journey, 2s=60(t₁+t₂). Therefore s=30(t₁+t₂)=40t₁=vt₂.
30t₁+30t₂=40t₁, 10t₁=30t₂, t₁=3t₂, so s=120t₂=vt₂ and v=120kph.
