Julia and maya are walking towards each other. when they started, the distance between them was 1600 feet. what will be the distance between them in 2.5 minutes, if they walk with the same speed: 80 feet per minute?

The distance between them after 2.5 minutes would be 1200 ft.

Walking 2.5 minutes at 80 ft/min is walking a distance of 200 ft.  Each person walks 200 ft towards the other; 200*2 = 400 ft off of the distance; 1600-400 = 1200 ft.

To determine the distance between them after walking for 2.5 minutes, you will need to calculate how far they will walk in that time.

You can use the distance formula: d = rt, where d is the distance, r is the rate, and t is the time.

d = 80 ft/min x 2.5 min
d = 200 ft for each of them

1600 - 200 - 200 = 1200 feet

They are 1200 feet away from each other.
