Speed of snail 1 = 3.795 cm/minute
Speed of snail 2 = 4.795 cm/minute
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Total distance = 189 cm
They crawl towards each other at rates that differ by 1 cm a minute
Let the speed of snail 1 be "x"
Let the speed of snail 2 be "x + 1"
Total time = 22 minutes
Since the snails are moving towards each other,
Speed = x + x + 1 = 2x + 1
<em><u>How fast is each snail crawling?</u></em>
Thus,
Speed of snail 1 = 3.795 cm/minute
Speed of snail 2 = 3.795 + 1 = 4.795 cm/minute
