Two cars are traveling down the highway with the same speed. if the first car increases its speed by 1km/hr, and the other car decreases its speed by 10km/hr, then the first car will cover the same distance in 2hrs as the second car in 3hrs. what is the speed of the cars?

The speed of the cars is

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must first have the clear concept that or

Our question is the speed of the cars then the variable to clear will be s.

Let's raise the equation for each car taking into account that we have the following data:

Car 1: , and

Car 1: , and

The two cars travel the same distance so we will raise the distance formula for each car and then match them.

Car 1

Car 2

The speed of the cars is 32 km/hr

step-by-step explanation:

ok so im not 100% sure but you would start by adding 5.1t and 1.9t beacuse they have the same variable. that is 7t.   then add -3.6 + 1.2 which is -2.4

so then keep that as -2.4 + 7t. i apologize if this is incorrect. best luck on your test < 3
