The distance between two cities A and B is 400km. A car leaves from A towards B at a speed of 90kmph, at the same time another car leaves from B towards A at 110kmph. -
a) Write the equations that give the distance as function of time.
b) Represent them graphically. V
c) Find the distance they have traveled to meet each other and the time invested.

a. Distance = 400 - 200t

b. see attached graph

c. A travelled 180 km, B travelled 220 km, both took 2 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

distance = 400

A = 90 km/h

B = 110 km/h

A & B drive towards each other

Solutions

a) equation

Let

t = elapsed time in hours,

D(t) = distance between two drivers

D(t) = 400 - (A+B) t  

D(t) = 400 - 200t  ......................(1)

b. graph : for graph, see attached figure.

c. Distance and time

Time:

solve for t with the distance D(t) = 0 using equation (1)

0 = 400 - 200 t

200t = 400

t = 2   hours

distance travelled by A = 2 hours * 90 km/h  = 180 km

distance travelled by B = 2 hours * 110 km/h  = 220 km

answer: if you weigh 60 pounds on earth, on the moon you will weigh about 10 pounds. if you weigh 120 pounds on earth, you will weigh about 20 pounds on the moon. since weight is caused by the mass of two objects that are near each other, the bigger the objects, the more the force of gravity.
