PLEASE ANSWER ASAP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST Two cyclists, 68 miles apart, start riding toward each other at the same time. One cycles 3 miles per hour faster than the other, and they meet after 4 hours of riding.

a. Write an equation using the information as it is given above that can be solved to answer this problem.

Use the variable r to represent the speed of the slower cyclist. b. What are the speeds of the two cyclists?

4r + 4(r + 3) = 68

r = 7 miles per hour

r + 3 = 10 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

distance = rate * time

a)

4r + 4(r + 3) = 68

Distribute

4r + 4r + 12 = 68

8r + 12 = 68

8r = 56

r = 7 miles per hour

r + 3 = 10 miles per hour

vertical translation of 3 units in the positive y direction

part 1 answer = 8

part 2 answer = 72

step-by-step explanation:

part 1 explanation = add all of the numbers, then divide by how many numbers you have. so, 200/25 = 8.

part 2 explanation = not gonna lie, this is hard to explain, so just google how to do it.
