Answer:

Speed of slower bus = 50mph and

speed of faster bus = 60 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let speed of first bus be x mph

Then speed of second bus = x+10 mph.

Let A and B have a distance d.

Then given that faster bus reached in 3.5 hours.

i.e.  ... i

THe other bus was away from B by 1/6 times d.

Distance travelled by slower bus = 1-1/6 = 5d/6  

Time taken = 3.5 hours

i.e.  ... ii

Divide i by ii to eliminate d.

ie Speed of slower bus = 50mph and

speed of faster bus = 60 mph

Use ii equation

miles
