Hey
Here is your answer,
Point A car speed be = a km/hr
Point B car speed be = b km/hr
If they travel in the same direction, they meet in 7 hours. Point A and B are 70 km apart.
7a = 7b + 70
a = b + 10
if they travel towards each other they meet in one hour. Point A and B are 70 km apart.
a + b = 70
putting value for a,
b + b + 10 = 70
b = 30 km/hr
a = 40 km/hr
Hope it helps you!
