Answer:they would meet after 4.5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
At the point where they will both meet, they would have covered a total distance of 540 miles.
Let t represent the time it will take the car and the truck to meet.
Distance = speed × time
The car drives at a speed of 65 miles per hour. Distance covered by the car in t hours would be
65 × t = 65t
The truck travels at a speed of 55 miles per hour.
Distance covered by the truck in t hours would be
55 × t = 55t
Therefore,. 65t + 55t = 540
120t = 540
t = 540/120 = 4.5 hours
