You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Speed = distance/Time\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "average speed = 270/6
\n" ); document.write( "average speed = 45
\n" ); document.write( "x = speed from point a to point b
\n" ); document.write( "y = speed from pont b to point c
\n" ); document.write( "x +10 = y
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 45
\n" ); document.write( "x + x + 10 = 45
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 35
\n" ); document.write( "x = 17.5mph
\n" ); document.write( "
