D=RT
D=8X
D=7*325
(8X+7*325)/15=350
(8X+2,275)/15=350 CROSS MULTIPLY
8X+2,275=15*350
8X+2,275=5,250
8X=5,250-2,275
8X=2,975
X=2,975/8
X=371.875 MPH. FOR THE 8 HOUR LEG.
2,975+2,275=5,250 IS THE TOTAL DISTANCE
5,250=R(8+7)
5,250=15R
R=5,250/15
R=350 MPH. IS THE AVERAGE SPEED.

D=RT
D=1.5T UP THE MOUNTAIN.
D=4.5(6-T) DOWN THE MOUNTAIN
SET THE DISTANCES EQUAL & SOLVE FOR THE TIME.
1.5T=4.5(6-T)
