è can drive 5 times as fast as Pedro can ride his bicycle. If it takes Pedro 4 hours longer than jose to travel 70 miles, how fast can Pedro ride his bicycle?

Answer 1

J=5P

70 = Jt = (P)(t+4) = 5Pt

5Pt = 70

Pt +4P = 70

5Pt+20P = 350

5Pt =70

20P = 280

P = 14 mph

J = 5(14) = 70 mph

Jose goes 70 miles in 1 hour

Pedro goes 70 miles in 5 hours

5(14) = 70
