Use good written language with the needed punctuation:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "A man travels a distance of 250 km. He travels 150km by bus and 100km by train and takes 3hrs. If he travels 100km by bus and 150 km by train, he takes 2:50hrs, then what is the speed of train and bus ?\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "r for rail speed
\n" ); document.write( "b for bus speed\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "FIRST TRAVEL PATH
\n" ); document.write( "\"TIME=DISTANCE%2FRATE\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28150%2Fr%2B100%2Fb=3%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "SECOND TRAVEL PATH
\n" ); document.write( "Again \"T=D%2FR\"---- do not confuse this R with r.
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28100%2Fr%2B150%2Fb=2%265%2F6%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Two equations in the two unknown variables r and b.
\n" ); document.write( "Solve the two equations as a system.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You might be able to setup a data table. I set up the two equations without a data table, since this seemed easier to do without one.

\n" );
