Remark
They are travelling in opposite directions. Their distances will be added until that distance = 462 miles.

You need only add the r*t values together. You do not need to find the distance.

Givens 
d = 462 miles
r1 = 115 mph
r2 = 95 mph
t = the time each was traveling.

Formula
r1 * t   +  r2*t = d

Substitute and solve
95 * t   +   115 * t = 462   Add the like terms on the left.
210 * t  = 462    Divide by 210
t = 462 / 210
t = 2.2 hours.

t = 2 1/5 hours

t = 2 hours  and 12 minutes 
All three answers are the same.

Answer:

-2 ≤ f(x) ≤ 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The range is the set or group of all the y-coordinates of the function. This means it has all the values from the bottom point at -2 to the top point at 4. It is written as an inequality.

-2 ≤ f(x) ≤ 4
