Answer 1

Answer:

They will pass in 30.97 seconds (16/31 minutes).

Step-by-step explanation:

blah blah this the answer nothing more nothing less

Answer 2

• Speed=Distance/Time

Let time be x , distance be y

• 160x=d-(1)
• 230x=210-y-(2)

Put value in eq(2)

$\\ \rm\longmapsto 230x=210-(160y)$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto 70x=210$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto x=30min$
