Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

When Brian passes Alex they both have travelled the same distance.

Call this distance d.

Let the speed that Brian passes = x miles/hour.

Distance = speed * time  so:

For Alex:

d = (x - 5) * 1.5        ( Alex cycles for 1 + 30 minutes =  1.5 hours)

For Brian:

d = x * 1

So substituting d = x in Alex's equation:

x = 1.5(x - 5)

x = 1.5x - 7.5

7.5 = 0.5x

7/5 / 0.5 = x

15 = x.

ANSWER:

Brian's speed is 15 miles/hour.

Alex's speed is 15 - 5 = 10 miles/hour.

Anarel [89]
    14x + 10y = 72
    14x +   4y = 96
                6y = -24
                 6       6
                  y = -4
    14x + 10y = 72
14x + 10(-4) = 72
       14x - 40 = 72
             + 40 + 40
