Let p and m represent the numbers of miles in the plains and mountains, respectively.
.. p + m = 300 . . . . . . . the whole trip was 300 miles
time = distance/speed, so the trip time can be written as
.. p/90 + m/37.5 = 3 48/60
.. 5p + 12m = 1710 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 450 to put in standard form
You can solve these two equations by any of several means. The variable p can be eliminated by subtracting 5 times the first from the second.
.. (5p +12m) -5(p +m) = 1710 -5*300
.. 7m = 210
.. m = 30
30 miles of the trip was through the mountains.

<span> <span>two numbers are related in this way:
the number 1 is subtracted from the first number, the difference is squared, then doubled;the result is equal to the second number. the number 1 is added to the first number, and the sum is squared;the result is equal to 4 minus the second number. determine the numbers. </span></span>
