Car X began traveling at an average speed of 35 miles per hour. After 72 minutes, car Y began traveling at an average speed of 50 miles per hour. When both cars had traveled the same distance, both cars stopped. How many miles did car X travel from the time car Y began traveling until both cars stopped?	Pick
A) 105
B) 120
C) 140
D) 147
E) 98

Rationale: "car y began travelling after 72 minutes or 1.2 hours . let t be the time for which car y travelled before it stopped . both cars stop when they have travelled the same distance . so , 35 ( t + 1.2 ) = 50 t t = 2.8 distance travelled by car x from the time car y began traveling until both cars stopped is 35 x 2.8 = 98 miles answer : - e"
Answer: E
