    Let car b be travelling at x mph. as they are travelling towards each other their speed of approach is (x + x + 15) mph. So we have the equation

    speed = distance / time

    2x + 15 = 250 / 2

    2x = 125 - 15 = 110

    x = 55 mph

    Car b travels at 55 mph and car a travels at 70 mph Answer
