Two buses leave towns 1631km apart at the same time and travel toward each other. one bus travels 17 /kmh slower than the other. if they meet in 7 hours, what is the rate of each bus?

Respuesta :

suppose one bus travels at x km/h, the second bus is 17 km/h slower so it is x-17
the first bus travels a total of 7x km, the second bus travels 7(x-17)km, together they travel the total distance of 1631 km
7x + 7(x-17) =1631
7x + 7x -119 =1631
14x=1750

x=125
x-17=108
