Which part do you need help on?
Let x = speed of the first car
the second car is 12 km slower so the seconds car speed is x-12
they each drove 2 hours so 1st car = 2x
2nd car = 2(x-12)
they drove 360 km
so you have 2x + 2(x-12) = 360
solve for x
2x+2(x-12) = 360
2x + 2x-24 = 360
4x-24 = 360
4x = 384
x = 384/4
x = 96
1st car drove at 96 km per hour
slower car drove at 96-12 = 84 km per hour
Set it up as an equation: 12 + 6x = 47
(x is the reduced fee)
12 + 6x = 47
12 - 12 + 6x = 47 - 12
6x = 35
x = 35/6
x = 5.83 repeating (only the 3 is repeating)
Answer: x > 18/7
