Arianna took 2hours longer to drive 360 miles on the first day of a trip than she took to drive 270 miles on the second day. If her spped was the same both days what was the driving time each day?
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "First Day DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "Distance= 360 miles ; Time= x+2 hrs ; Rate =d/t = 360/(x+2) mph
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Second Day DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "Distance= 270 miles ; Time = x hrs ; Rate = d/t = 270/x mph
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "EQUATIOn:
\n" ); document.write( "rate day DISABLED_event_one= rate day two
\n" ); document.write( "360/(x+2) = 270/x
\n" ); document.write( "36/(x+2)=27/x
\n" ); document.write( "36x = 27x+54
\n" ); document.write( "9x=54
\n" ); document.write( "x=6 hrs (driving time on day two)
\n" ); document.write( "x+2= 8 hrs (driving time on day one)
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
