Shannon and Maxine work in the same building and leave work at the same time. Shannon lives due north of work and Maxine lives due south. The distance between Maxine's house and Shannon's house is 60 miles. If they both drive home at the rate 2R miles per hour, Maxine arrives home 40 minutes after Shannon. If Maxine rider her bike home at the rate of R per hour and Shannon still drives at a rate of 2R miles per hour, Shannon arrives home 2 hours before Maxine. How far does maxine live from work?	Choose the correct choice:  A) 20  B) 34  C) 38  D) 40  E) 46

Rationale: we have that x / 24 - ( 60 - x ) / 2 r = 40 also x / r - ( 60 - x ) / 2 r = 120 so we get that 2 x - 60 = 80 r 3 x - 60 = 240 r get rid of r 120 = 3 x x = 40 hence answer is d
Answer: D
