Question

(iv) Places A and B are 100 km apart on a highway. One car starts from A and another
from B at the same time. If the cars travel in the same direction at different speeds,
they meet in 5 hours. If they travel towards each other, they meet in 1 hour. What
are the speeds of the two cars?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Your solution is here.

speed of Car A = 60 Km/h.

speed of Car B = 40 Km/h

Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge{\mathcal{\underline{\green{Answer}}}}$

Let the speed of car at A be x km/h

and the speed of car at B be y km/h

As per the question,

5x - 5y = 100

x - y = 20 ... (1)

and x + y = 100 ... (2)

Solving (1) and (2), we get,

x = 60 and y = 40

Speed of the car at A = 60 km/h

Speed of the car at B = 40 km/h
