You can put this solution on YOUR website!
total AVERAGE rate of speed for entire trip we will call r=22.5\r

\n" ); document.write( "r2=30---next 60mi
\n" ); document.write( "r3=unknown(this is what we are trying to find--- of final 40mi\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(r1+r2+r3)/3=r\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "20+30+r3=3(22.5)
