Ared car and a blue car are traveling at the same speed. the red car drives 3 hours. the blue car drives another half hour and goes 25 more miles. which equation can be solved to find how fast the cars are going? (the boxes are plus signs )

3.5x = 25 + 3x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the speed in miles per hour of both red car and blue car,

We know that,

Distance = speed × time,

If time taken by red car = 3 hours,

Then the distance travelled by red car = 3x

Now, if the time taken by blue car = 3.5 hours,

Then the distance travelled by blue car = 3.5x

According to the question,

Distance covered by blue car = 25 miles + Distance travelled by red car

3.5x = 25 + 3x

Which is the required equation.

i think it might be a but you might want a second opinion
