Car A travels east at a fixed rate of speed.

There is no "rate of speed."
There's speed, and there's rate.
=======================
Car B travels west at a speed of 15 miles per hour faster than Car A. If the cars are 150 miles apart after 2 hours, how fast is each car traveling?
----------
Depends on where they started from, and when they started.

A pitiful problem.
