If the time spent during the faster speed was twice that spent at a slower speed, find the two speeds during the trip. \n" ); document.write( "
Algebra.Com's Answer #653056 by jorel555(1290)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let n be the slower speed. Then \n" ); document.write( "2(60/n)=240/n+30 \n" ); document.write( "120/n=240/n+30 \n" ); document.write( "120(n+30)=240n \n" ); document.write( "120n+3600=240n \n" ); document.write( "120n=3600 \n" ); document.write( "n=30 \n" ); document.write( "n+30=60!!!!!!!!!!! \n" ); document.write( " |
