Question

Two boats started to move towards each other from two boat stations, located 30 miles apart. One boat moved at a speed of 3 miles per hour, the other moved twice as fast. How soon will the boats meet?

Answer 1

The boats will meet in 3.33 hours.

Explanation:

A(t) = B(t)

3t = 30 - 6t

9t = 30

t =
`(30)/(9)`

t = 3.33
