You can put this solution on YOUR website! CARS___________speed____________time____________distance
Car A__________66_______________2+h_____________(____)
Car B__________34_______________h_______________(____)
Total____________________________________________932
h is time in HOURS that car B traveled.
The sum of both car's distances must be 932 when they meet. We do not yet know more about each car's distance. Use the basic relation, rate*time=distance to fill in the expressions.
