    Answer:
    Step-by-step explanation:
    To find total distance from Cody
    Speed = 60 km/h
    Time = 3 h
    Distance = Speed x Time
    Distance = 60 km/h x 3h = 180 km
    Cody travel 180km to catch up with Nicole
    To find Nicole Time of travel:
    180 km = 45 km/h x T
    Time = 180 km / 45 km/h = 4 h
    It takes 4 hrs for Nicole  to travel 180 km
    Therefore Cody start 1 hr later
