Answer:

34 mph and 68 mph respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

let the speed of the first truck be x mph

and the speed of the second truck be 2x mph

time taken = 6 hours

total distance = 204 miles

Step two:

from speed = distance/time

distance= speed*time

hence

2x*6-6x= 204

12x+6x= 204

6x= 204

divide both side by 6

x= 204/6

x=34 mph

The second truck was moving at

=2x

=2*34

=68 mph
