The distance betw

Let the speed of car at place A is x km/h and that of car at place B is y km/h

If they travel in same direction, they will meet after 7 hours, i.e. the difference of distance covered by them in 7 hours will be equal to distance b/w A and B.

As, distance = speed × time, and distance from A to B is 70 km

⇒ 7x - 7y = 70

⇒ x - y = 10

⇒ x = y + 10 eq.[1]

If they, travel in opposite direction, they will meet after 1 hour i.e. sum of distance travelled by both cars will be equal to the distance b/w A and B.

⇒ x + y = 70

Using eq.[1], we have

⇒ y + 10 + y = 70

⇒ 2y = 60

⇒ y = 30

Using this in eq.[1], we have

x = 30 + 10 = 40

Hence,

Speed of car at A = x = 40 km/h

Speed of car at B = y = 30 km/h
