You can put this solution on YOUR website!
let x be the amount of miles driven and t= time
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "50-x=45(t) if you drive for t=1 hour(time has to be in hours) because the distance is in miles and the speed is mph. that would be 45 miles
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "50-x=45(1)-->x=5...so 5 miles from home
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
