Two things come to mind while just reading the description one time: \n" ); document.write( "(rate)*(time)=(distance), and total time traveling was 7 hours.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Going to Granmother's ----- \n" ); document.write( "u is time and d is distance. We know neither. \n" ); document.write( "Also, \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Returning from Grandmother's----- \n" ); document.write( "v is time traveling and d is distance. We know neither. \n" ); document.write( "Also, \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "...but we know that d is the same in each equation, being distance to grandmother's house. \r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Use the time travel information give, that 7 hours. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "SOLVE for d. \n" ); document.write( " |
