We can set up an equation using the given formula and the distance we want to find:
234 = 52t + 65t
Combining like terms:
234 = 117t
Dividing both sides by 117:
t = 2
Therefore, after 2 hours, the distance between the two cars will be 234 miles.
The formula d=52t+65t
can be used to find the distance, d
, between two cars after traveling t
hours in opposite directions. After how many hours will the distance between the two cars be 234 miles?
