kathy traveled m miles in h hours and then traveled x miles in h+ 4 hours. at the same overall average rate,
\n" ); document.write( "Find the speed from the given information; speed = dist/time
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "s = m/h
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "s = x/(h+4)
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "how long would it take her to travel 50 miles; t = dist/speed
\n" ); document.write( "\"50%2F%28m%2Fh%29\" = \"50+%2A+%28h%2Fm%29\" = \"%2850h%29%2Fm\" hrs
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "\"50%2F%28x%2F%28h%2B4%29%29\" = \"50+%2A+%28%28h%2B4%29%2Fx%29\" = \"%2850h%2B200%29%2Fx\" hrs
