Question 847733: You and a friend are 2 miles apart. You start walking toward each other at the same moment. You travel 22 feet every 5 seconds. Your friend travels 32 feet every 8 seconds. How close are you to each other after 10 minutes? Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 10*60=600 seconds in 10 minutes.
600/5=120
120*22=2640
600/8=75
75*32=2400
2640+2400=5040 ft
2 miles are 2* 5280 =10560 ft
10560-5040=
5520 ft apart
