----------------------------------
After two hours, bus A covered 100 km, while bus B covered 70 km.
----------------------------------

That means that bus A had speed of 50 kilometers per hour, and bus B had speed of 35 kilometers per hour.


---------------------------------
Suppose bus A is 30km/h faster than bus B.
----------------------------------

Nonsense!
