Step-by-step explanation:
Here is an illustration of the problem:
----------------------------->|<------------------
A t J
Alex and Jo start from their separate homes and drive towards one another. The t indicates the time at which they meet, which is the same time for both. Filling in a d = rt table:
d = r x t
Alex 14 t
Jo 6 t
The formula for motion is d = rt, so that means that Alex's distance is 14t and Jo's distance is 6t.
14t 6t
---------------------------------->|<------------------
A t J
The distance between them is 5 miles, so that means that Alex's distance plus Jo's distance equals 5 miles. In equation form:
14t + 6t = 5 and
20t = 5 so
t = .25 hours or 15 minutes.
If they leave their homes at 3 and they meet 15 minutes later, then they meet at 3:15.
