Answer:

400 feets

Explanation:

Given the following :

Julio's speed = 350 ft/min

Luca's speed = 450ft / min

They both moved in opposite direction

Distance apart after 4 minutes :

Distance = speed * time

Julio's distance after 4 minutes :

350 ft/min × 4 minutes = 1400 feets

Luca's distance after 4 minutes :

450 ft/min × 4 minutes = 1800 feets

Distance apart in feets after 4 minutes :

(1800 - 1400) feets

= 400 feets
