Answer:

2 hours will pass before they meet

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance = 10mi

Aaron = 3mi/h

Zhang = 2mi/h

Let y be the number of hours for them to meet.

The expression is given as

3y + 2y = 10

solving for y, we have

5y = 10

y = 10/5

y = 2 hrs

Therefore, 2 hours will pass before they meet.
