The answer is C. 2 hours and 15 minutes. Please refer to the attached document to see the image for better understanding of solution.

Philadelphia = Point A
Pittsburgh = Point B
X = distance traveled by Michelle
(305-X) = distance traveled by Rich

The general formula used is:

distance = velocity(time)
s = v(t)

Assigning values gives 2 equations:

For Michelle: X = 65(t)
For Rich: (305-X) = 70(t)

Substituting both equations gives:

X = 146.852 miles
t = 2.26 hours or approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes
