The two cars will be 105 miles apart in 3.5 hours.
We can determine this by realizing that the net difference in their speed is 30 miles per hour (70mph - 40mph). This means that every hour that passes, car A moves 30 miles away from car B. To determine the final time, we can divide the total goal distance by the rate.
105miles/30mph = 3.5 hours.
