Answer 1

D = 59t

P = 42t

5 hours after noon, darmian is 17 miles closer to the stadium than paisley

Explanation:

At noon, Damian is 383 miles away from the stadium and paisley is 315 miles away from the stadium.

Now, we are told that damians speed is 59 mph while paisley's speed is 42 mph.

At t hours after noon, their distance covered will be;

Damian; D = 59t

Paisley; P = 42t

This is because distance = speed × time

Now, 5 hours after noon, their respective distance covered will be;

D(5) = 59 × 5 = 295 miles

P(5) = 42 × 5 = 210 miles

This means that;

distance of Damian from the stadium is; 383 - 295 = 88 miles

Distance of paisley from the stadium is;

315 - 210 = 105 miles

Difference in their distances to the stadium = 105 - 88 = 17 miles

Thus, 5 hours after noon, darmian is 17 miles closer to the stadium than paisley
