I am the mother of an 8th grader trying to figure out the best way to solve and then explain without directly giving her the answer. Tutorials have not helped me!
I understand the formula to be; Distance/Speed/Time
Question;
Two ships were 700mi apart at midnight and were headed directly towards each other. If they collided at 10am, find the speeds of both ships if one was traveling 30mph faster than the other.
D=700mi
T= 12am+10am=10hrs
S=x + y(+30mph)
I’m stuck here. Please help! Ty!!
