# Two cars

Two cars started against each other at the same time to journey long 346 km. The first car went 53 km/h and the second 53 km/h.

What distance will be between these cars 20 minutes before meet?

Correct result:

x =  35.33 km

#### Solution:

$v_{1}=53 \ \text{km/h} \ \\ v_{2}=53 \ \text{km/h} \ \\ s=346 \ \text{km} \ \\ \ \\ T=20 \ min \rightarrow h=20 / 60 \ h=0.33333 \ h \ \\ \ \\ 0 \lt x \lt s \ \\ x=v_{1} \cdot \ T + v_{2} \cdot \ T=53 \cdot \ 0.3333 + 53 \cdot \ 0.3333=\dfrac{ 106 }{ 3 }=35.33 \ \text{km}$
