Algebra.Com's Answer #215076 by MathTherapy(10556) You can put this solution on YOUR website! a plane flew 500 km from atlanta to louisville. when returning to atlanta the flight took 1/2 hour less time.if the rate to Louisville was 50km/hr faster than the rate returning, find the two rates in km/hr.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "This doesn't make sense!! \r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "How can the return trip take less time than the outgoing one when the plane is traveling at a slower rate of speed on the return trip? This is not practical!!\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "It has to be that for the plane to take less time on the return trip, it has to be traveling at a faster rate of speed than it did on the outgoing trip to Louisville, not a slower one. \n" ); document.write( " |
