Question

Из поселка в город выехал мотоциклист со скоростью 60 км/ч. В то же время ему на встречу выехал велосипедист со скоростью 15 км/ч. Они встретились через 2 часа. 1)Кто был ближе до города, когда они встретились мотоциклист или велосипедист? 2)Какое расстояние от города до поселка?

Answer 1

60*2=120 км - проехал мот
15*2=30 км - проехал велосип
1) они оба были на одинаковом расстоянии от города - в 30 км от него
2) 120+30=150 км - расстояние между поселком и городом

Answer 2

Who was closer to the city when the motorcyclist and the cyclist met?

To determine who was closer to the city when they met, we need to compare the distances traveled by the motorcyclist and the cyclist.

The motorcyclist traveled at a speed of 60 km/h for 2 hours, so the distance traveled by the motorcyclist can be calculated as:

Distance = Speed × Time = 60 km/h × 2 hours = 120 km.

The cyclist, on the other hand, traveled at a speed of 15 km/h for 2 hours, so the distance traveled by the cyclist can be calculated as:

Distance = Speed × Time = 15 km/h × 2 hours = 30 km.

Therefore, when they met, the motorcyclist was closer to the city since they had traveled a greater distance.

What is the distance from the city to the village?

To find the distance from the city to the village, we need to consider the total distance traveled by both the motorcyclist and the cyclist.

The motorcyclist traveled a distance of 120 km, and the cyclist traveled a distance of 30 km. Since they met each other, the sum of their distances would be equal to the total distance between the city and the village.

Total distance = Distance traveled by the motorcyclist + Distance traveled by the cyclist = 120 km + 30 km = 150 km.

Therefore, the distance from the city to the village is 150 km.
