\n" ); document.write( "FOR JIM
\n" ); document.write( "D=60(T-1)
\n" ); document.write( "BECAUSE THE DISTANCES ARE THE SAME WE SET THESE EQUATION EQUAL & SOLVE FOR T.
\n" ); document.write( "50T=60(T-1)
\n" ); document.write( "50T=60T-60
\n" ); document.write( "50T-60T=-60
\n" ); document.write( "-10T=-60
\n" ); document.write( "T=-60/-10
\n" ); document.write( "T=6 HOURS AFTER JERRY LEAVES THEY WILL MEET.
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF:
\n" ); document.write( "50*6=60(6-1)
\n" ); document.write( "300=60*5
