Question 986413: Two cars are moving at constant velocity to the right. Initially (at time t=0) car A is 19.7 miles ahead of car B. Car A has a velocity of 22.0 mph and car B has a velocity of 33.0 mph.
If at some point car B catches up with car A, answer when this will happen (in minutes).
If car B never catches up with car B, answer how far (in miles) the cars are from each other after 37.6 minutes of driving. Answer by josgarithmetic(39620) (Show Source):
CAR A 22 t d
CAR B 33 t d+19.7
The description can be improved as, car A goes distance d during time t while car B must include additional distance 19.7 along with d.
