You can put this solution on YOUR website! Randy and Amy left school at the same time and began walking in opposite diretions. Randy walked at a rate of 3.6 km/h and Amy walked at a rate of 4.2 km/h. How far apart were they after 10 minutes.
----------
Randy DATA:
rate= 3.6 km/h ; time= 1/6 hr ; distance = rt=3.6*(1/6)= 0.6 km
------------
Amy DATA:
rate=4.2 km/h ; time= 1/6 hr ; distance = rt = 4.2*(1/6)=0.7 km
---------
Total distance apart = 0.6+0.7 = 1.3 km
