On the first part of a road trip to Batangas travelling on the highway, Kelly averages 60 kph.
\n" ); document.write( " On the rest of the roadtrip, which was 10 kilometers longer than the first part, she averaged 50 kph.
\n" ); document.write( " Find the total distance to Batangas if the second part of the trip took 30 minutes more than the first.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "let d = distanced traveled the first part of the trip at 60 kph
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "(d+10) = distance traveled the second part at 50 kph, (10 km longer)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Change 30 min to 1/2 hr
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Write a time equation; time = dist/speed
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "50kph time - 60kph time = 1/2 hr
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28%28d%2B10%29%29%2F50\" - \"d%2F60\" = \"1%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "multiply by 300 to cancel the denominators, then you have:
\n" ); document.write( "6(d+10) - 5d = 150
\n" ); document.write( "6d + 60 - 5d = 150
\n" ); document.write( "6d - 5d = 150 - 60
\n" ); document.write( "d = 90 km is the 1st part of the trip
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "90 + 10 = 100 km is the 2nd part
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "90 + 100 = 190 km is the total distance to Batangas. Philippines?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Confirm this, find the actual time of each part of the trip
\n" ); document.write( "100/50 = 2 hrs
\n" ); document.write( "90/60 = 1.5 hrs
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "time dif: .5 hrs
