\n" ); document.write( "P=rate of plane
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "2070mi/P=240mi/(P-366mph)
\n" ); document.write( "(240mi)P=(2070mi)(P-366mph)
\n" ); document.write( "(240mi)P=(2070mi)P-(757620mi^2/hr)
\n" ); document.write( "(-1830mi)P=-757620mi^2/hr
\n" ); document.write( "P=414mi/hr
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "ANSWER: The rate of the plane was 414 miles per hour.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Car's rate=C=P-366mph=414mph-366mph=48mph
\n" ); document.write( "The car's rate is 48 miles per hour.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "(2070mi)/(414mph)=(240mi)/(48mph)
\n" ); document.write( "5 hours=5 hours
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
