A truck and a car leave a service station at the same time and travel in the same direction. The truck travels at 48 mph and the car at 42mph. They can maintain radio contact within a range of 12 miles. When will they lose contact

48-42=6 6*2=12 48*2=96 42*2=84 96-84=12
It will take them 2 hours before they lose contact
