Answer:

The expression for the truck's position in terms of t would be xtruck = t × vtruck, where vtruck is the truck's velocity. The expression for the car's position in terms of t would be xcar = t × vcar + x0, where vcar is the car's velocity and x0 is the car's initial position. For the vehicles to eventually meet, these two equations must be equal, so vtruck = vcar + (x_0/t).
