Question 1091837

Scott drove to the mountains last weekend. There was heavy traffic on the way there, and the trip took 
7
 hours. When Scott drove home, there was no traffic and the trip only took 
4
 hours. If his average rate was 
27
 miles per hour faster on the trip home, how far away does Scott live from the mountains?
<pre>Piece of advice: You don't have to determine the person's speed since that was not asked for.
You just need to set up a SPEED equation to find the distance.

I'm TIRED of seeing so many of these same "mountain" problems. Here is a list with 8 of them on here.

You will notice that <b>problem # 969368</b> is EXACTLY like this one, with the exception that the person is YOKO instead of Scott.
