Answer: 7 hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Distance between Emily and Kylie is [tex]140\ \text{miles}[/tex]

Speed of Emily [tex]v_e=12\ mph[/tex]

Speed of Kylie [tex]v_k=8\ mph[/tex]

Distance traveled by Emily [tex]\Rightarrow d_e=12t[/tex]

Distance traveled by Kylie [tex]\Rightarrow d_k=8t[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 12t+8t=140\\\Rightarrow 20t=140\\\Rightarrow t=7\ hr[/tex]

They will meet after 7 hour.
