\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "1st Part DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "distance = 80 miles ; time = 5 hrs ; rate = 80/5 = 16 mph
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "2nd Part DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "distance = 400-80 = 320 miles ; rate = 2*16 = 32 mph
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "2nd Part time = distance/rate = 320/32 = 10 hrs
