\n" ); document.write( "a truck enters the highway driving 60 miles per hour . a car enters the highway the same place 8 minutes later and drives 68miles per hour in the same direction . from the time the car enters the highway how minutes will it take the car to pass the truck
\n" ); document.write( "
Let time it’ll take the car to catch up to the truck, be T
\n" );
document.write( "Then we get the following DISTANCE equation: \"matrix%281%2C3%2C+68T%2C+%22=%22%2C+60%28T+%2B+8%2F60%29%29\"
\n" );
document.write( "68T = 60T + 8
\n" );
document.write( "68T  -  60T = 8
\n" );
document.write( "8T = 8
\n" );
document.write( "T, or time it'll take car: \"highlight_green%28matrix%281%2C4%2C+8%2F8%2C+%22=%22%2C+1%2C+hour%29%29\" \n" );
document.write( "
\n" );
