You can put this solution on YOUR website! two buses leave charlotte at the same time traveling in opposite directions.
one bus travels at 55 mph and the other at 64 mph.
Let the buses be 238 miles apart after a time 't'.
Distance traveled by one bus=55t
Distance traveled by second bus=64t
55t+64t=238
119t=238
t=2 hours
They will be 238 miles apart in 2 hours.
