travelling at a constant speed of 90 km/h.
Writr an equation that could be used
to determine how much time in hours( t) the car

Answer :

pepe11
equation of the travel of the truck: y = 80.x         (x in hours)
equation of the travel of the car   : y = 90(x - 1/3) 
when they meet: 80x = 90x - 30 => 10x = 30 => x = 3h
They'mm meet after 3 hours
