Answer:they would meet at 1 pm
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between Quebec City and New York City is 520 miles.
At the point where Kate and Will meet, they would have travelled 520 miles.
Let t represent the time it takes Kate to travel a certain distance before they met.
Distance = speed × time
If Kate drives at 55mph, the distance covered would be
55 × t = 55t.will drives at 75 mph
Since Will left same that that Kate left, distance travelled by Will in t hours would be
75 × t = 75t
Since the total distance covered is 520 miles, it means that
55t +75t = 520
130t = 520
t = 520/130 = 4
9 am + 4 hours = 1 pm
Answer:
 1 pm
Step-by-step explanation:
Their combined speed is 55 + 75 = 130 miles per hour. That is the rate at which the distance between them is decreasing. The time it takes for the distance between them to become zero is found from the relation ...
 time = distance/speed
 time = (520 mi)/(130 mi/h) = 4 h
4 hours after 9 am, Kate and Will will meet. That time is 1 pm.
