You can put this solution on YOUR website!
they travel the same distance, so the two quantities are equal
\n" ); document.write( "__ the rates are in hours, so all other times must match __ t and t-.25
\n" ); document.write( "__ 12(t-.25)=12t-3\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "9t=12t-3 __ 3=3t __ 1=t\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Kate arrives @ 4:00
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
