Answer:

The answer to your question is: three hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

data

Jogger 1 = 6 mi/h

Jogger 2 = 6.5 miles/h , starts 15 min (0.25 h) after the first Jogger

Time when the second jogger catch the first jogger = ?

Process

Advantage of the first jogger    d = vt = 6(0.25) = 1.5 mi

Distance where they meet       1.5 + 6t = 6.5t

Find the t value                          6.5t - 6t = 1.5

                                                   0.5 t = 1.5

                                                    t = 1.5 / 0.5

                                                    t = 3 hours
