Answer: it will take 1.25 hours before they meet

Step-by-step explanation:

Linda is meeting Steve. Linda walks at 2.5 miles per hour.

Distance = speed × time

time = distance / speed

Let t represent the time it takes Linda to cover her distance.

Distance covered by Linda = 25×t = 2.5t miles

Steve is walking at 1.5 miles per hour.

Let t1 represent the time it takes Steve to cover his distance.

Distance covered by Steve = 1.5×t = 1.5 t1 miles.

They are 5 miles apart. It means that by the time they met, they have covered a 5 miles. Therefore

2.5t + 1.5t1 = 5

Assuming both of them spent the same time walking, it means that

t = t1

2.5t + 1.5t = 5

4t = 5

t = 5/4 = 1.25 hours
