Let $\"+s+\"$ = the speed of the bus
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+1.5s+=+60+\"$ km/hr is the speed of the car
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+s+=+60%2F1.5+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+s+=+40+\"$ km/hr
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "For the car:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+72+=+60t%5B1%5D+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+t%5B1%5D+=+72%2F60+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+t%5B1%5D+=+1.2+\"$ hrs
\n" ); document.write( "For the bus:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+72+=+40t%5B2%5D+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+t%5B2%5D+=+72%2F40+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+t%5B2%5D+=+1.8+\"$ hrs
\n" ); document.write( "The bus takes $\"+1.8+-+1.2+=+.6+\"$ hrs longer
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+.6%2A60+=+36+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The bus takes 36 minutes longer\r
