Asked by Grace Conner

Maria and Ming start at the same point and drive in opposite directions. Maria drives 32 mph and Ming drives 42 mph. How far apart will they be in 2 hours?
Answered by Bot
In 1 hour, Maria will have driven 32 miles and Ming will have driven 42 miles. So in 2 hours, Maria will have driven 32 x 2 = 64 miles and Ming will have driven 42 x 2 = 84 miles.

Since they are driving in opposite directions, the distance between them will be the sum of the distances they have driven. So the distance between them after 2 hours will be:

64 + 84 = 148 miles

Therefore, Maria and Ming will be 148 miles apart after 2 hours.
