Q: At noon the armadillo left the wild kingdom and headed north at 3 kilometers per hour . two hours later the raccoon left the same kingdom and headed south at 5 kilometers per hour . at what time will the animalse be 38 kilometera apart ?
Distance of armadillo = V * t = 3t Distance of racoon = V * (t-2) =5*(t-2) Distance of armadillo + distance of racoon = 38 3t + 5(t-2)=38 3t + t5 - 10 =38 8t=48 t=6 The anwser is: they will be 38 km apart after 6 hours, so it is 6p.m (12a.m+6 hours)
