Recall your d = rt, distance = rate * time
let's say we have two cars, A and B, B has a speed rate of "r", so A is the faster one and has a speed rate of " r + 10 "
they both are 300 miles apart after 3hrs, after 3hrs, car has been running for 3hrs, and car B has also been running for 3hrs, so their time is the same
we know their distances added up, is 300miles, so if car B covered say, "d" distance on those 3hrs, car A covered the slack, " 300 - d "
solve for "r"
