FOR EASY BRAINLIEST ANSWER THIS QUESTION:

Two cars leave from the same place and travel in the same directionOne car travels one an one third times as fast as the other. After 3 hours, they are 45 miles apart. What is the speed of each car?

Answer 1

Answer:

22.5 m/h and 7.5 m/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's said that x is the speed of the faster car. That means the slower one must have the speed of x/3.

x/3 * 3 + 45 = x * 3

x + 45 = 3x

45 = 3x - x

45 = 2x

x = 22.5

x/3 = 7.5
