Y is often the variable used to represent the dependent variable in an equation.
Remark
You know the most about the trip on the way back and the total of the two trips.
Way Back
r = 30 mph
d = distance traveled
t = t - 1 where t = the time to go there which we know nothing about
Total Distance
2d = 25 mph * (t + t - 1)
2d = 25 * (2t - 1)
2d = 50t - 25 Divide by 2
2d = 50t/2 - 25/2
d = 25t - 12.5
Equation coming back
d = 30*(t - 1)
d = 30t - 30
Comment
Since the distances are the same, equate them.
Solution
25t - 12.5 = 30t - 30 Subtract 25t from both sides
25t - 25t -12.5 = 30t - 25t - 30 Combine like terms
-12.5 = 5t - 30 Add 30 to both sides
-12.5 + 30 = 5t - 30 + 30 Combine
17.5 = 5t Divide by 5
17.5/5 = t Divide and Switch
t = 3.5
t is the time going there
t - 1 is the time coming back
Total time = 2*t - 1 = 2*3.5 - 1 = 6
The total time is 6 hours. Answer
