Question

Maria bikes 25 km per hour and starts at mile 10. Glen bikes 29 km per hour and starts at mile 0. Which system of linear equations represents this situation?

A.Maria: d = 10t + 25
Glen: 29d = t

B.Glen: d = 25t + 10
Maria: d = 29t

C.Maria: d = 25t + 10
Glen: d = 29t

D.Maria: d = 10t + 25
Glen: d = 29t

Answer 1

C.Maria: d = 25t + 10

Glen: d = 29t

Hope this helps Have a nice day

Answer 2

Maria starts at a distance of 10 from where Glen starts.

Velocity = distance/time => v=d/t => d=vt
If the distance is measured from starting point,
After time (t),

Maria covers

d-10 =25t => d=25t+10

Glen covers

d=29t

Therefore, C is the correct answer.
