Question 850865
Start a stop watch when Fred leaves Atlanta
Let {{{ t }}} = time on stop watch when Alyssa
catches Fred
Let {{{ d }}} = the distance that both of them traveled
until Alyssa catches Fred
-----------------------------------------------
Fred's equation:
(1) {{{ d = 65t }}}
Alyssa's equation:
(2) {{{ d = 74*9 }}}
---------------
(2) {{{ d = 666 }}} 
and
(1) {{{ d = 65t }}}
(1) {{{ 666 = 65t }}}
(1) {{{ t = 10.246 }}} 
Fred drove for 10.246 hrs before
Alyssa caught up
Hope I got it
