Answer:

Caleb arrived earlier.

Also, he arrived 2 hours earlier.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}

For Alyssa,

Distance = 105 miles,

Time = 3.5 hours,

∴ Alyssa's speed = \frac{105}{3.5} = 30 miles per hour,

For Caleb,

Distance = 168 miles,

Time = 4 hours,

∴ Caleb's speed = \frac{168}{4} = 42 miles per hour,

Since, they are driving with the constant speed,

Thus, Caleb's speed > Alyssa's speed

That is, Caleb will arrive earlier,   ( Time ∝ 1 / speed )

Now, they both have to cover 210 miles,

Time taken by Caleb in the entire journey = \frac{210}{42} = 5 hours,

While, the time taken by Alyssa in the entire journey = \frac{210}{30} = 7 hours,

∵ 7 - 2 = 5

Hence, Caleb arrived 2 hours earlier.
