Place A and B are 80 km apart from each other on a highway . A car starts from A and other from B at the same time. If they move in the same direction , they meet in 8 hrs and If they move in opposite direction , they meet in 1 hour 20 min . Find the speeds of the cars..Help !! its urgent.....

Answer» LET the SPEED of car at A be x km\hr
let the speed of car at b :y km\hr 8x-8y=80
x-y=20............(1)
-x-y=80............(2)
= -2y =-60
y= 30
substituting the value of y in equation (1)
x-y =20
x-30=20
x=20+30=50
