At 8.00 strarted from Bratislava to Poprad express Tatry. Cities are distant 340 kilometers. At the same time started from Poprad express Danube to Bratislava. Express Tatry's average speed is 80 km/h, Danube 90 km/h. At what distance from Poprad trains will meet?

Result

x =  180 km

Solution:


80t + 90t = 340
x = 90t

170t = 340
90t-x = 0

t = 2
x = 180
