Go Places A and B are 100 km apart on the highway. One car starts from A andanother from B at the same time. If the cars travel in the same direction at adifferent speed, they meet in 5 hours. If they travel towards each other, theymeet in 1 hour. What are the speeds of the two cars?viteifite length is reduced​

Answer»

Step-by-step explanation:

let

1st car speed =X

2nd car speed=y

in case 1

speed of 1st car=s×t

=x×5=5x

speed of 2nd car =5y

AB+BC=AC

100+5y=100

-5y+5x=100

x-y=20------1

by 2nd EQ

speed of1st car =X

2nd car =y

X+y=100-----2

solve 1and2 eq

=2x=120

X=60----sub in eq1or 2

then

y=40
