Answer:
The time 2 cars will they be 25 miles apart is 6:45am
Explanation:
Since the cars are travelling in opposite direction
Total distance which will be covered= distance covered by car 1+ distance covered by car 2
Since
Average Speed=
![(Total Distance)/(Total time)](https://img.qammunity.org/2020/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/vlwdeh1zmczgwjbkp0t949m4pcdygwzaew.png)
Suppose total time is taken as x
Total distance covered by car1 = average speed of car1
total time
= 60x
Similarly
Total distance covered by car2= average speed of car2
total time
=40x
Now as we know that the total distance covered is 25 miles
Therefore
Total distance covered = 60x+40x
25=100x
X=
![(25)/(100)](https://img.qammunity.org/2020/formulas/mathematics/high-school/alvyeu3pfqp4r3m9vptegf4dwf82obzm0r.png)
X=
hour
60 = 15mins
Hence it will be 6:45am when they will be 25 miles apart
