A person was fined for exceeding the speed limit by 10mph. Another person was also fined for exceeding the same speed limit by twice the same. If the second person was traveling at a speed of 35 mph, find the speed limit.
Let ‘x’ be the speed limit. Person ‘A’ was fined for exceeding the speed limit by = 10mph
Person ‘B’ was fined for exceeding the speed limit by = twice of ‘A’ => 2*10mph=20mph
given that the second person was traveling at the speed of 35mph => 35mph – 20mph = 15mph

Threshold speed x mph let us assume that the 1st person was travelling at (x+10)mph so it's obvious that the 2nd person travels at 2*(x+10)mph 35mph; which means x 7.5 which is the threshold or the speed limit. So according to me the ans is 7.5mph.

let x be the speed limit; first person speed x + 10; second person speed x + (2 * 10); x + 20; 35 x + 20; x 15 km/hr
