\n" ); document.write( "Let $\"+t+\"$ = time in hrs for them to meet
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+132+=+%28+92+%2B+132+%29%2At+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+132+=+224t+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+t+=+1.697+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+.697%2A60+=+41.8+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "They meet in 1 hr 42 min
