Steve's brother time to catch-up --- t hrs
Steve's time to catch-up by brother -- t+2
54t = 18(t+2)
54t = 18t + 36
36t = 36
t = 1
Steve had biked for 3 hours, when his brother overtook him.
thanks
Also, how far had steve traveled when his brother overtook him?
simply sub in the value of t = 1 into both distances., you will obviously get the same answer since they both went the same distance.
ok
Reiny, how can you show me how to do the last part wirten out?
Thank you so much!
