y represent the distance each person will travel 
x time of travel in minutes
Suppose ajay began the trail 325 meters ahead of tory. so the distance of ajay
y = 325 + rxwhere r is the speed of ajay
for tory
y = vxwhere v is the speed of torry

Answer:

Tory:

[tex]v = \displaystyle\frac{r}{x}\\\\vx = r[/tex]

Ajay:

[tex]v = \displaystyle\frac{325+r}{x}\\\\vx =325+ r[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to answer this question we need to make the following assumptions:

Let Ajay and Tory have the same speed represented by:

v = Speed in meters per minute.

Formula:

[tex]Speed = \displaystyle\frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]

Now, it is given that Ajay began the trail 325 meters ahead of Tory.

Let d be the distance traveled by Tory.

Then, we can represent the situation in the form of equations.

Tory:

[tex]v = \displaystyle\frac{r}{x}\\\\vx = r[/tex]

Ajay:

[tex]v = \displaystyle\frac{325+r}{x}\\\\vx =325+ r[/tex]
