    T = D/rtimes the sameBev = Susan's time600mi/r+10 = 500mi/r

    600r = 500r + 5000100r = 5000r = 50mph, Susan's speed. Beverly's is 60 mph 50+10And ... checking600/60 = 500/50 = 10hr

    600/x + 10 = 500/x Cross multiply.

    600x=5000+500x

    100x=5000

    X=50

    50+10=60

    Check work. Beverly drives 60mph
