Jake is faster than Paul. Jake and Paul each walk 24 km The sum of their speeds is 7 km /h and the sum of times taken by them is 14 hours Then. Jakes speed is equal to:

• speed of jake=x
  time of jake= 24/x
  speed of paul=7-x
  time of paul=24/7-x
  24/x + 24/(7-x) =14
  solving quadratic, x=3,4
  speed of jake=4 because jake is faster

• Let Jake's speed = x, paul's = (7-x)
  24/7 + 24/(7-x) =14
  solving we get x=3,4
  so jakes speed 4km/h
