A PeopleMover bus leaves Old Towne Depot along the Long Highway at 1 PM, driving at a steady 60 miles per hour.
One hour later a Traveler's Delite bus leave the same OldTown Depot in the same direction on Long Highway driving at a steady 72 miles per hour.
Create a system of equations and figure
How many miles from Old Towne Depot does the Traveler's Delite bus pass the PeopleMover bus
And
how many hours after the first bus left did the buses pass
1 Expert Answer
Distance = Rate x Time.
Bus 1 travels for x hours at 60 MPH = 60x
Bus 2 travels for (x-1) hours at 72 MPH = 72(x-1)
They pass when those are equal: traveled the same distance.
60x = 72(x-1) = 72x - 72
72 = 12x
6 = x = the number of hours before they pass. It's 6 hours after the first bus departed.
60*6 = 360 miles
72(6-1) = 360 miles (to verify).
They passed 6 hours after the first bus departed, and it was 360 miles from the Old Towne Depot.
