The time it will take before Diego catches up with Linh will be after 8 hours

Let :

  • Distance traveled = d

Diego :

  • Travel speed = 75 mph
  • Travel time = t

Linh:

  • Travel speed = 60 mph
  • Travel time = t + 2

Recall :

  • Distance covered = speed × time

  • Distance covered by Linh = 60(t + 2)
  • Distance covered by Diego = 75t

Time when Diego catches up with Linh :

Diego's distance = Linh's distance

75t = 60(t + 2)

Solve for t ;

75t = 60t + 120

Collect like terms

75t - 60t = 120

15t = 120

Divide both sides by 15 to isolate t

t = (120 / 15)

t = 8

Hence, Diego will catch up with Linh after 8 hours.
