Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a linear equation, it goes as follows:

[tex]105(x) - 95(x) = 480[/tex]

x stands for hours.

Solving for x yields 10.

Keep in mind that 105 and 95 are miles per hour where 480 is miles. So multiplying [tex](\frac{miles}{hours}) (hours)[/tex] gives off hours which is what we are looking for.

Hope this helps.
