[b]7.6 / 6.5 [/b]The distance AB is 100 km. From A and B , cyclists simultaneously ride towards each other at speeds of 20 km/h and 30 km/hour accordingly. Together with the first A, a fly flies out with speed 50 km/h, she flies until she meets the cyclist from B, after which she turns around and flies back until she meets the cyclist from A, after which turns around, etc. How many kilometers will the fly fly in the direction from A to B until the cyclists meet?

Let $u(t)$ be a continuous function in the system of differential equations
$$\frac{dx}{dt} =-2y +u(t),\;\;\; \frac{dy}{dt}=-2x+ u(t).$$
Show that, regardless of the choice of $u(t)$, the solution of the system which satisfies $x=x_0 , y=y_0$
at $t=0$ will never pass through $(0, 0)$ unless $x_0 =y_0.$ When $x_0 =y_0 $, show that, for any positive value
$t_0$ of $t$, it is possible to choose $u(t)$ so the solution is equal to $(0,0)$ when $t=t_0 .$
