Two cars leave town going in opposite directions. One car is traveling 50 miles per hour (mph), and the other car is traveling 40 mph. How long will it take before the cars are 360 miles apart? 4 hrs 6 hrs 2 hrs 5 hrs

OpenStudy (shane_b):

If one is traveling 50mph and the other is traveling 40mph, their rate of separation will be 50+40=90mph. How many hours would it take for them to get 360 miles apart at 90mph?

Yes... \[90 \frac{mi}{hr}*4hr=360mi\]
