Correct Answer
Explanation
The distance between the two locations is given as x km. We are given that the time difference between the arrival of the two cars is 1/2 hour. The speed of the first car is given as 3 km/hr and the speed of the second car is given as 4 km/hr. We can use the time difference and the speeds of the two cars to find the distance between the two locations. Since the time difference is 1/2 hour and the speed of the first car is 3 km/hr and the speed of the second car is 4 km/hr, we can set up the following equation: (3 km/hr - 4 km/hr)/(1/2 hr) = 1/2. Solving for x, we get x = 6 km. Therefore, the distance between the two locations is 6 km.
