Ken is driving from his house to Dolphins Stadium for a Monday night Football game. His arrival time depends on the traffic. If traffic is light, he will travel at an average speed of 60mph and arrive 2 hours earlier. If traffic is heavy, he will travel at an average speed of 30mph and arrive at kickoff. The equation represents driving time in hours. 60(t-2)=30t What is the distance, IN MILES

if traffic is heavy it is 30 x 4=120 miles if traffic is light it is 60 x 2=120 so it is 120 miles
