I think it is 35 but I could be wrong
Elijah will pass John after 5 hours, and they each will have traveled 310 miles. Then the correct option is C.
<h3>What is speed?</h3>
The distance covered by the particle or the body in an hour is called speed. It is a scalar quantity. It is the ratio of distance to time.
We know that the speed formula
Speed = Distance/Time
John and Elijah are both driving from New York City to Richmond.
John leaves at 7:20 and averages 60 mph (miles per hour) on the way.
Elijah leaves at 7:30 and averages 62 mph on the way.
The situation is modeled by this system, where x is the number of hours after Elijah leaves and y is the distance each will travel.
y = 60x + 10 ...1
y = 62x ...2
The time is taken by Elijah to cross John will be
62x = 60x + 10
2x = 10
x = 5 hours
The distance traveled in 5 hours will be
y = 62 (5)
y = 310 miles
Elijah will pass John after 5 hours, and they each will have traveled 310 miles.
Then the correct option is C.
