This is a very good question to know about. People who make tests really like it.

The way to solve it is to make the slower car stop and use the difference in speed = to the rate. then do it as an ordinary d = r*t problem.

The difference in speeds  is 44 - 36 = 8 miles/ hour.
d = 260 miles
r = 8 mph
t = ???

t = d/r
t = 260/8
t = 32.5 hours.

Thats 32 1/2 hours.

Wich number is the principal square root of 49
myrzilka [38]
A principle square root of a real number that's not negative, such as 49, is the square root of that number that is not negative.

If you take the square root of 49, you get either -7 or 7, since both 7^{2} and (-7)^{2} equal 49. However, the principle square root would be A) 7, since it's not negative.
