You can put this solution on YOUR website!
you can use the formula {d=rt}
\n" ); document.write( "44x+48(x-1)=274
\n" ); document.write( "44x+48x-48=274
\n" ); document.write( "9x-48+48=274+48
\n" ); document.write( "92x=322
\n" ); document.write( "x=3 1/2
\n" ); document.write( "1:00pm +3 1/2 hrs = 4:30pm
