Dana x 129 miles
\n" ); document.write( "Chuck x+ 8 147 miles
\n" ); document.write( "The time taken by them is the same
\n" ); document.write( "t=d/r
\n" ); document.write( "129 / x = 147 /(x+ 8 )
\n" ); document.write( "Cross multiply
\n" ); document.write( "129 (x + 8 ) = 147 * x
\n" ); document.write( "129 x + 1032 = 147 x
\n" ); document.write( "147 x -129 x = 1032
\n" ); document.write( "18 x = 1032
\n" ); document.write( "/ 18
\n" ); document.write( "x = 57.33 Dana mph
\n" ); document.write( " 65.33 Chuck mph
