A truck enters a highway driving 60 mph. A car enters the highway at the same place 1010 minutes later and drives 7575 mph in the same direction.

Ten minutes is of an hour;

           SPEED        TIME              DISTANCE

TRUCK       60                   

CAR         75           t

Car passes truck when distances are equal.

Solve for time t in hours.
