jill is 20kilometers away from joe.
\n" ); document.write( " Both begin to walk toward each other at the same time.
\n" ); document.write( " Jill walks at 1.5km/hr.
\n" ); document.write( " They meet in 5 hours.
\n" ); document.write( " How fast is Joe walking?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let j = Joe's walkin speed
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Write a distance equation, dist = speed * time
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Jill's dist + Joe's dist = 20 km
\n" ); document.write( "1.5(5) + 5j = 20
\n" ); document.write( "7.5 + 5j = 20
\n" ); document.write( "5j = 20 - 7.5
\n" ); document.write( "5j = 12.5
\n" ); document.write( "j = \"12.5%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "j = 2.5 km/hr is Joe's walking speed
\n" ); document.write( ":
