Answer 1

Answer:

um 18 and 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The speed of one bicyclist was 14.5mph, speed of the other bicyclist was 17.5mph.

Let the speed of one bicyclist=x mph

Let the speed of the other bicyclist=(x+3) mph

Hence:

Speed of one bicyclist:

3x+3(x+3)+2=98

3x+3x+9+2=98

6x=87

Divide both side by 6x

x=87/6

x=14.5 mph

Speed of the other bicyclist:

x+3 mph

14.5 mph+3 mph

=17.5 mph

Inconclusion the speed of one bicyclist was 14.5mph, speed of the other bicyclist was 17.5mph.
