The distance between P and Q after t seconds is 2.5t + 2t + 4 = 4.5t + 4 cm.
Since the same amount of time passes for both of them, we can use the same variable t for time.
Then we have an equation 4.5t + 4 = 40 or 4.5t = 36. So t = 8.

Therefore, C is the answer.
Answer: C

Dist between P and Q after t seconds is 2.5t + 2t + 4
Dist bw PQ= 4.5t + 4

This implies 4.5t + 4 = 40 or 4.5t = 36.
So t = 8.
Answer - t=8
