on monday, roger drove to work in 20 minutes. on tuesday, he averaged 15 miles per hour more, and it took him 6 minutes less to

ch4aika [34]

Let the distance to his office be x, then
On monday, speed = x/20 miles per minutes = 3x miles per hour
On tuesday, speed = (3x + 15) miles per hour
Time = distance / speed
(20 - 6)/60 hours = x/(3x + 15) hours
7/30 = x/(3x + 15)
7(3x + 15) = 30x
21x + 105 = 30x
30x - 21x = 105
9x = 105
x = 105/9 = 11.7 miles

Therfore he travels an average of 11.7 miles to work.
