It sounds like \"+240+\" mi is the one-way distance
\n" ); document.write( "Let \"+s+\" = her speed in mi/hr going to parent's house
\n" ); document.write( "Let \"+t+\" = her time in hrs going to parent's house
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Going to parent's house:
\n" ); document.write( "(1) \"+240+=+s%2At+\"
\n" ); document.write( "Returning from parent's house:
\n" ); document.write( "(2) \"+240+=+%28+s+-+20+%29%2A%28+t+%2B+2+%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "It's all yours
\n" ); document.write( "hint: solve for \"+t+\" in (1), plug that into (2)
\n" ); document.write( "then solve for \"+s+\"
\n" ); document.write( "
