If city A is 450 miles east of city B, and car C leaves A for B at 50 miles an hour, and car D leaves City B for city A at 60 miles an hour, at what point does car C meet D?
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "A to B DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "rate = 50 mph ; time = x hours ; distance = 50x miles
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "B to A DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "rate = 60 mph ; time = x hours ; distance = 60x miles
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "miles + miles = 450 miles
\n" ); document.write( "50x + 60x = 450
\n" ); document.write( "110x = 450
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4.09 hours
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "50x = 50*4.09 = 204.55 miles from A toward B
\n" ); document.write( "60x = 60*4.09 = 245.45 miles from B toward A
