    D) None of the answers are correct

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let t be the time since the first car leaves

    Distance of first car:

    90t

    Distance of second car:

    120 (t - 3)

    90t = 120 (t - 3)

    90t = 120t - 360

    360 = 30t

    t = 12

    The second car takes 12-3 = 9 hours to reach it
