\n" ); document.write( "The sum of their speeds = 392mi/4hrs = 98mi/hr
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "x=speed of slower car; x+6 mi/hr=speed of faster car
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "x+x+6 mi/hr=98 mi/hr
\n" ); document.write( "2x=92 mi/hr
\n" ); document.write( "x=46 mi/hr
\n" ); document.write( "ANSWER 1: The slower car traveled 46 mi/hr
\n" ); document.write( "s+6 mi/hr=46mi/hr+6mi/hr=52 mi/hr
