Jodie bicycles 8 km/h faster than Carlos. In the same time it takes Carlos to bicycle 60 km, Jodie can bicycle 84 km. How fast does each bicyclist travel?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "let Carlos speed at x kmph
\n" ); document.write( "Jodie speed = x+8 kmph
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "Carlos distance = 60 km
\n" ); document.write( "Jodie distance = 84 km
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "Carlos time = 60/x
\n" ); document.write( "Jodie time = 84/(x+8)
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "60/x = 84/(x+8)
\n" ); document.write( "84x=60(x+8)
\n" ); document.write( "84x=60x+480
\n" ); document.write( "84x-60x=480
\n" ); document.write( "24x=480
\n" ); document.write( "x= 20 kmph
\n" ); document.write( "x+8 = 20 +8 = 28 kmph
