g Chelsea left the coffee shop traveling 6 mph. Then, 4 hours later, Katie left traveling the same direction at 18 mph. How long will Katie travel before catching up with Chelsea

Answer :

Answer:

2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent the anount of time traveled by Chelsea

Katie

d= 18t

Chelsea

d= 6(4+t)

18t= 6(4+t)

18t= 24+6t

18t-6t= 24

12t= 24

Divide bith isdes by the coefficient of t which is 12

t= 24/12

t= 2

Hence Katie will have to travel for 2 hours before catching up with Chelsea,
