Adding x minutes to a DateTime object

Suppose I have a DateTime object d1, and I want to add x minutes to it to form a second DateTime object d2. How do you do that?

You can do something like this. I used the variable names you mentioned in the example.
Code:
d2 = d1.advance(:minutes => x)

Thanks for the reply. It's in a Rails application, so I also found an approach using since:
Code:
x.minutes.since d1
