Answer:Let x and (x-3) represent Elvira's and David's times respectively


D = r*t  


Distances traveled are equal in this example***







14mph*x = 21mph(x-3)


solving for x


14x = 21x - 63


 63 = 7x


x = 9hr, the time that Elvira traveled.  David traveled 6hrs   (9hr-3hr = 6hr)




CHECKING our Answer***


14mph*9hr = 126mi = 21mph*6hr = 126mi
