Ramon and Ashaki are making the same trip in separate cars.
\n" ); document.write( "Ramon has traveled 126 miles. He is traveling at a constant rate of 50 miles per hour.
\n" ); document.write( " Ashaki has traveled 62 miles. She is traveling at a constant rate of 58 miles per hour.
\n" ); document.write( " How long until they are at the same point?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "From the information given we know that A has to travel 126-62 = 64 more mi than R
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "S's dist = R's dist + 64 mi
\n" ); document.write( "58t = 50t + 64
\n" ); document.write( "58t - 50t = 64
\n" ); document.write( "8t = 64
\n" ); document.write( "t = 64/8
\n" ); document.write( "t = 8 hrs they will be at the same point
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Confirm this by finding the actual distance each is from their starting point
\n" ); document.write( "8(50) + 126 = 526 mi
\n" ); document.write( "8(58) + 62 = 526 mi, they're at the same point from where they started. \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
