The average speed of a car is three times as fast as the average speed of a cyclist. to travel 225 km, the cyclist requires 5 h more than the car. determine the average speeds of the cyclist and the car.

Respuesta :

average speed of cyclist = x
average speed of car = 3x

x = 225/5
x = 45km/h

3x = 3(45)
3x = 135km/h

average speed of cyclist = 45km/h
average speed of car = 135km/h
