Step-by-step explanation:
Let L be the distance between the cities and let "t" be the time (in minutes) from the start to the moment Nora meets Kate.
The first equation is
100*t + 80*t = L (1) (Nora's walked distance + Kate's distance = L at the moment they meet each other)
Also, the time from the start to the moment Nora meets Lixin is (t+6) minutes.
And the second equation is similar to the first one:
100*(t+6) + 75*(t+6) = L. (2) (Nora's walking distance + Lixin's distance = L at the moment they meet each other)
Equations (1) and (2) have equal right sides.
Hence, their left sides are equal, too:
100*t + 80*t = 100*(t+6) + 75*(t+6).
It is a single equation for one unknown "t". Simplify and solve for "t":
180*t = 175t + 600 + 300,
180t - 175t = 900,
5t = 900,
t = 900%2F5 = 180.
Thus we found the time "t" till the first meeting. It is 180 minutes.
Then the distance, according to the equation (1), is 100*180 + 80*180 = 32400 meters = 32.4 kilometers.
Answer. The distance between the cities is 32400 meters, or 32.4 kilometers.
