Two cars travel the same distance. The first car travels at a rate of 37 mph and reaches it's destination in t hours. The second car travels at a rate of 56 mph and reaches it's destination in 2.8 hours earlier than the first car. How long does it take the first car to reach it's destination
\n" ); document.write( "***
\n" ); document.write( "let t =How long does it takes the first car to reach it's destination
\n" ); document.write( "t-2.8=How long does it takes the second car to reach it's destination
\n" ); document.write( "distance=rate of speed*travel time
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "37t=56(t-2.8)
\n" ); document.write( "37t=56t-156.8
\n" ); document.write( "19t=156.8
\n" ); document.write( "t≈8.25
\n" ); document.write( "How long does it takes the first car to reach it's destination=8.25 hrs \n" ); document.write( "
