Question 742839: Two car leave at the same time going opposite directions. One of them travels at 60mph and the other at 30mph. In how many hours will they be 150 miles apart? Answer by nyc_function(2741) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Distance = rate multiplied by time of travel.
60x + 30x = 150
90x = 150
x = 150/90
x = 15/9
x = 5/3 hours
