At 1:00, Annie starts to bicycle along a 71 mile road at a constant speed of 14 miles per hour. Thirty minutes earlier, Scott started bicycling towards Annie on the same road at a constant speed of 12 miles per hour. At what time will they meet?  Choose the correct choice from the following options.
A) 2:00
B) 2:30
C) 3:00
D) 3:30
E) 4:00
In the first 30 minutes, Scott can travel 6 miles, so there are 65 miles left.   Together Annie and Scott can complete 26 miles.   65/26=
