Question 450487: two cars leave the same location at the same time and travel in the same direction along a road. The first car is traveling at a rate of 55 m/ph. the second car is traveling at a rate of 35 m/ph. how many time will pass before the cars are exactly 100 miles apart Answer by rwm(914) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! r*t=d
55t-35t=100
20t=100
t=5 hours
This means that the first car is going 20mph faster than the second car how long will it take to go 100 miles
5*20=100
