Set up the following equations:


x represents car A's speed, and y represents car B's speed.
We'll use elimination to solve this system of equations. Multiply the first equation by 7:


Combine both equations:

Divide both sides by 28 to get x by itself:

The speed of car A is
80 mph.Since we now know the value of one of the variables, we can plug it into the first equation:


Subtract 160 from both sides.

Divide both sides by 2 to get y by itself:

The speed of car B is
60 mph.
In the algebraic expression a constant is a fixed value, and in this case it is 4. If the question was asking for the coefficient, then the answer would’ve been 7 due to to variable being multiplied.
