we use rate * time(t) = distance
\n" ); document.write( "there are two equations which we set equal to each other
\n" ); document.write( "5*(t-5) = 4*(t+5)
\n" ); document.write( "5t -25 = 4t +20
\n" ); document.write( "t = 45 minutes
\n" ); document.write( "distance between Ram's home and his school
\n" ); document.write( "distance = 5 * ((45-5)/60) = 3.333333333 km
\n" ); document.write( "
