You can put this solution on YOUR website!
She has already driven for five hours, so the remaining distance of her trip must be completed in nine hours.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To find this, we can subtract the distance that she has already travelled from the total distance of the trip:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "55mph * 5hrs = 275miles
\n" ); document.write( "And the total distance is 662miles, so:
\n" ); document.write( "662mi - 275mi = 387\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We know that she wants to make the trip in a total of fourteen hours, but she has already used five hours. So there are nine hours heft for her to complete 387 miles.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"387mi%2F9hrs\"
\n" ); document.write( "Her speed for the remainder of the trip must be 43mph. \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
