Distance d = speed x time

With one hour head start the slower car traveled d= 55x1 = 55 miles

The faster car catches up when they have traveled same distance

d = 65t = 55t + 55

10t = 55

t = 5.5 hours

How many hours will a car traveling at 45 miles per hour take to catch up with a car traveling at 30 miles per hour if the slower car starts one hour before the faster car?

After 1 hour the slower car will be 30 mph x 1 hour = 30 miles ahead of the faster car. The faster car is travelling 45 mph - 30 mph = 15 mph faster than the slower car and so will cover this 30 miles in 30 miles ÷ 15 mph = 2 hours at which point it will have caught the slower car and start to over take it.
