He drives 60mph to try to make up for lost time. What time do the two friends meet?
\n" ); document.write( "
Let time taken by Michael to meet, be T
\n" );
document.write( "Then time Ronald takes = T + 1
\n" );
document.write( "We then get the following DISTANCE equation: 60T + 44(T + 1) = 200
\n" );
document.write( "60T + 44T + 44 = 200
\n" );
document.write( "104T = 156
\n" );
document.write( "T, or time taken by Michael to meet = \"matrix%281%2C4%2C+156%2F104%2C+%22=%22%2C+1%261%2F2%2C+hours%29\"
\n" );
document.write( "Time they will meet:  \n" );
