Question

Bob and John are 450 feet when they start running towards each other. Bob runs at a speed of 11 get per second, and John runs at a speed of 14 feet per second how too will they meet

Answer 1

18 seconds

Explanation:

Distance between both runners = 450 feets

Bob's speed = 11 ft/s

John's speed = 14 ft/s

Let The time it takes to meet = x

Recall :

Distance = speed * time

Bob's distance + John's distance = 450 feets

11x + 14x = 450

25x = 450

x = 450 / 25

x = 18 seconds
