Answer:
x/2 = 35 and the answer to this equation would be 70 miles per hour.
Explanation:
Let's call x the speed (per hour) of the cars.
We know that the SUV goes 35 miles in half an hour. So, the speed per hour divided by two would be 35 miles. (since half an hour is one hour divided by two).
We can write this as:
[tex]\frac{x}{2} = 35\\x= 35(2)\\x= 70[/tex]
Therefore, the equation that can be solved to find how fast the cars are going is [tex]\frac{x}{2}= 35[/tex] and the velocity would be 70 miles per hour .
