Using proportions, it is found that:
- Peter is walking at a rate of 3 km/h.
- MJ is biking at a rate of 9 km/h.
---------------------------
- Peter is walking at a rate of x km/h.
- MJ is biking 6 km/h faster than Peter, thus 6 + x km/h.
- Opposite directions, thus, their distance increases at a rate of (6 + 2x) km each hour, as .
6 + 2x km each hour, 18 km after 1.5 hours, thus, the rule of three is:
1h - (6 + 2x) km
1.5h - 18 km
Applying cross multiplication:
Then:
- Peter is walking at a rate of 3 km/h.
- MJ is biking at a rate of 9 km/h.

Answer:
His book was opened at Page no.296 and Page no.297
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the page number of one page be x
Page number of page facing page no. x = x+1
We are given that the product of the facing pages was 87,912.
So, x(x+1)=87912
(x+297)(x-296)=0
x=296,-297
Since Page no. cannot be negative
So, x=296
x+1=296+1=297
So, his book was opened at Page no.296 and Page no.297
Because both positive and negative values have<span> a positive </span>absolute value.
8 + 2(10 - r) = 8 + 20 - 2r = 28 - 2r
