Marcus and Cody both leave the park at the same time, but in opposite directions. If Cody travels 6 mph faster than Marcus and after 4 hours they are 64 miles apart, how fast is each traveling? Solve using Rare times time = Distance.

Respuesta :

Answer: Marcus travels at 5mph and Cody travels at 11mph


Step-by-step explanation:

x = Marcus

x + 6 = Cody


4(x + x + 6) = 64

4x + 4x + 24 = 64

8x + 24 = 64

8x = 40

40/8 = 5

5 + 6 = 11

Marcus = 5 Cody = 11


4*5 + 11*4 = 64
