Rich is driving from Philadelphia to Speed Pittsburgh at 70 miles per hour and Michelle is driving from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia at 65 miles per hour Philadelphia and speeds at 300 miles apart how long will it take rich and Michelle to meet

Respuesta :

Formula:
distance = velocity (time)

Philadelphia = point A
Pittsburgh = point B
Distance traveled by Michelle be X
Distance traveled by Rich be 305 X

Substitute:
Michelle: X = 65(t)
Rich: 305 - X = 70 t

Solving:
X = 146.562 miles

T = 2.26 hours or 2 hours and 15 mins

Answer:

They will meet after 2 hours 13 minutes 20 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t  be the time when  Rich and Michelle meet .

distance traveled  by  Rich =  70 (t)

Distance traveled by Michelle =65(t)

distance between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh = 300 miles

                              70t+65t= 300

                              135t = 300

                                 t=[tex]\frac{300}{135}[/tex]

                                 t = 2.22 hours

                                  or 2 hours 13 mins  20 seconds .
