Answer:

Rate of slower bus; 90 km/h

Rate of faster bus; 102 km/b

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that formula do distance is;

Distance = speed/time

We are told that One bus travels 12h slower than the other.

Let speed of slower bus be x.

Thus;

Speed of faster bus = x + 12

Speed of slower bus = x

After 3 hours, distance by faster bus = 3(x + 12)

Speed of slower bus = 3x

Since the towns are 576 km apart, then;

3(x + 12) + 3x = 576

Divide through by 3 to get;

x + 12 + x = 192

2x + 12 = 192

2x = 192 - 12

2x = 180

x = 180/2

x = 90 km/h

Faster bus speed = 90 + 12 = 102 km/h

How do you simply 2x+8=-6
photoshop1234 [79]
To simplify <span>2x + 8 = -6, the easiest way is to manipulate the equation one step at a time:

</span>2x + 8 = <span>-6
</span>2x = <span>-14             (subtract 8 from both sides)
</span>x = -7                 (divide both sides by 2)
