an airplane travwl 100km/h slower then another airplane. In 4 hours the faster airplanes travel the same distance as the slower airplane travel in 6 hours. Find the rate of the faster airplane.
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "Slower plane DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "rate = x-100 km/h ; time = 6 hrs; distance = rt = 6(x-100) km
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Faster plane DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "rate = x km/h ; time = 4 hrs; distance = rt = 4x km
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "distance = distance
\n" ); document.write( "6(x-100) = 4x
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 600
\n" ); document.write( "x = 300 km/h (rate of the faster airplane)
\n" ); document.write( "x-100 = 200 km/h ( rate of the slower airplane)
