It takes a small jet plane 4 hours less time than it takes a propeller-driven plane to travel from Glen Rock to Qakville. The jet averages 637 km/h while the propeller plane averages 273 km/h. How far is it from Glen Rock to Oakville?
\n" ); document.write( "---------
\n" ); document.write( "small jet DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "time = x-4 hrs ; rate = 637 km/hr ; distance = 637*(x-4) km
\n" ); document.write( "=========================
\n" ); document.write( "propeller plane DATA:
\n" ); document.write( "time = x hrs ; rate = 273 km/hr ; distance = 273x km
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "273x = 637x - 637*4
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "-364 x = -2548
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "x = 7 hrs
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Ans: Distance = 273x = 1911 km
\n" ); document.write( "===================================
