Two friends left school at the same time and drove in opposite directions. One friend averages 40 miles per hour and the other friend averages 35 miles per hour. When will they be 150 miles apart?

Respuesta :

They are moving apart at a rate of 40+35=75 mi/hr. Time for them to be 150 mi aPart. 150=75. They will be 150 mi apart in 2 hours. Hope this helps.

Answer:

2.000 hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

If they are going in opposite directions simultaneously, then you would add together both rates of speed(MPH)(40m + 35m = 75m) and multiply that number however many times necessary(2h) until you get the equaled value requested in the question(150m). 2h x 75m = 150m thus making the answer 2.000 hrs

 Hope this helps:)
