Answer:

0.3 hour or 18 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

How long means, we are to calculate the time(t)

Hence,

Speed × time = Distance

For Neil , 11 × t

For Charlie = 9 × t

11t + 9t = 6

20t = 6

t = 6/20

t = 0.3 hour

Converting to minutes

1 hour = 60 minutes

0.3 hour = x

x = 0.3 × 60 minutes

x = 18 minutes

Therefore, it will take 0.3 hour or 18 minutes for these two to meet.

Line A is represented by the following equation:
Inga [223]
Line A : x + y = 2

The most likely equation for line B so that the set of equation has no solution is: 

x + y = 4

====

x + y = 2
x = 2 - y

2-y + y = 4
0 = 4 - 2
0 ≠ 2

there is no value for x nor y. so, no solution.
