Respuesta :

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

Car B was 10 miles east of car A.

What is speed?

The rate of change of position of an object in any direction is called speed.

What is the relation between speed, distance and time?

[tex]speed = \frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

According to the given question

Speed of car A was 60 miles/hour.

⇒ After 2hours the distance covered by car A = 60 × 2 = 120 miles.

But it is given that car travelled total 130 miles.

So, the extra distance covered by the car = 130 - 120 = 10 miles.

From the graph we can say that the distance.

At, Time = 0

The distance travelled by car B is 20 miles.

Now, the extra distance covered by the car A w.r.t B = 20 - 10 = 10 miles

Since, both the cars were travelling in east direction.

Therefore, Car B was 10 miles east of car A.
