\n" ); document.write( "Okay, sorry for this but let us re-state the problem here to make it clear.
\n" ); document.write( "At 5:00pm, Adam and David were on Eastbound highway and Adam, travelling at \"60mi%2Fhr\" was 10 miles ahead of David, right? (east of David, meaning farther east?)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "The question is, when David accelerated to \"70mi%2Fhr\", at what TIME did he passed Adam who's travelling at \"60mi%2Fhr\"?
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "*Remember: \"Speed=Distance%2FTime\"--->\"S=D%2FT\", and \"D=S%2AT\"
\n" ); document.write( "*\"D\" is constant since no one stopped--->\"D%5BA%5D=D%5BD%5D\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"S%5BA%5D%2AT%2Bhighlight%2810mi%2Fhr%29=S%5BD%5D%2AT\", remember to add 10mi/hr because he's ahead.
\n" ); document.write( "\"%2860mi%2Fhr%29%28T%29%2B10%28mi%2Fhr%29=70%28mi%2Fhr%29T\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"10=70T-60T\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"10=10T\"=====> \"cross%2810%291%2Fcross%2810%291=cross%2810%29T%2Fcross%2810%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28T=1hour%29\", after 1 hour they'll be at the same Distance.
\n" ); document.write( "Check:
\n" ); document.write( "\"S%5BA%5D%2AT%2B10=60%28mi%2Fcross%28hr%29%29%2A1%2Across%28hr%29%2B10=70miles\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"S%5BD%5D%2AT=70%28mi%2Fcross%28hr%29%29%2A1%2Across%28hr%29=70miles\"
\n" ); document.write( "So, after 1 hour(pass 6:00pm), David passed Adam, for David is faster.
\n" ); document.write( ".
