Jackson and ginger are both learning to ride a bike. Jackson can travel y=4x miles, and ginger travels y=3x+15. When will the distance traveled in miles (y) and the minutes spent biking (x) be the same for both friends?

The time at which the distance of both the riders will be same is required.

At 5 minutes they both would have covered 20 miles.

Intersecting lines

The given lines are [tex]y=4x[/tex] and [tex]y=3x+5[/tex]

So,

[tex]4x=3x+5\\\Rightarrow 4x-3x=5\\\Rightarrow x=5[/tex]

Finding [tex]y[/tex]

[tex]y=4x\\\Rightarrow y=4\times 5=20[/tex]

At [tex]x=15[/tex] the distance covered by both riders is [tex]y=20[/tex]
