Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'a' and 'e' represent Alvin's and Elga's ages, respectively.
a = e-12 . . . . . Alvin is 12 years younger
a + e = 86 . . . the sum of their ages is 86
__
Substituting for 'a' gives ...
(e -12) +e = 86
2e = 98
e = 49
a = 49 -12 = 37
Alvin is 37; Elga is 49.
I got 499 seconds, the difference may be because of the conversion from meters to kilometers in order to calculate the time
