Two people are driving east on the 401 highway in the same direction. One driver is starting in London, Ontario, and is driving at a speed of 135km/h. The other driver is starting in Kitchener, Ontario and is driving at a speed of 108km/h. At what distace and time will the two drivers meet on the highway if the driver from London started driving 30 minutes before the driver in Kitchener? (You may need to search up some distances up on your device, like the distance between Kitchener and London Ontario) Use whatever techniques or technology, you need to solve the problem, but a complete, correct, and algebraic solution will give you the best grade.
Unitary Method
The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.
Speed, Time, and Distance
Imagine you and 3 of your friends are planning to go to the playground at 6 in the evening. Your house is one mile away from the playground and one of your friends named Jim must start at 5 pm to reach the playground by walk. The other two friends are 3 miles away.
Profit and Loss
The amount earned or lost on the sale of one or more items is referred to as the profit or loss on that item.
Units and Measurements
Measurements and comparisons are the foundation of science and engineering. We, therefore, need rules that tell us how things are measured and compared. For these measurements and comparisons, we perform certain experiments, and we will need the experiments to set up the devices.
