Question 479300: Could you help me solve this problem please?
Two limos leave south bend at the same time and travel in opposite directions. One limo averages 65 mi/h and the other limo averages 55 mi/h. After how many hours will the limos be 720 mi apart.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
They separate at 120 mi/hr (65 + 55)
Use d = rt
t = d/r
