Two drivers are traveling from New York City along the same interstate highway. Tomas traveled 854 miles yesterday and is traveling 65 miles per hour () for the remainder of his trip. Klaus traveled 682 miles yesterday and is traveling 73 miles per hour () for the remainder of his trip. How many hours () does each man have to drive so that Klaus travels as far as Tomas? Step 1: Choose the general form of the equation or inequality for this situation.
distance traveled by Tomas > distance traveled by Klaus
the speed of Tomas < the speed of Klaus
distance traveled by Tomas = distance traveled by Klaus
the time elapsed for Tomas = the time elapsed for Klaus
the speed of Tomas = the speed of Klaus
