Answer:

it will take the cars t = 0.125 h for them to have a distance of 15 km between them.

Explanation:

at the instant the cars are 15 km apart they gonna have to move:

75ﾃ葉 and 45ﾃ葉 respectively

where t is the time it will take them to be move until they 15 km apart,then to find the time:

75ﾃ葉 + 45ﾃ葉 = 15

120ﾃ葉 = 15

t = 0.125 h

Therefore, it will take the cars 0.125 hours for them to end up being 15 km apart.
