A ship travelled 8100km from the port. At that moment,a jet plane whose speed is 10 times the speed of ship took off from the port. After travelling how much distance will the plane overtake the ship ?
\n" ); document.write( "let d=distance ship traveled after plane took off
\n" ); document.write( "8100+d=distance plane traveled to overtake ship
\n" ); document.write( "x=speed of ship
\n" ); document.write( "10x=speed of plane
\n" ); document.write( "travel time=distance/speed (same for both ship and plane)
\n" ); document.write( "\"d%2Fx=%288100%2Bd%29%2F%2810x%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"10x%2Fx=%288100%2Bd%29%2Fd\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"10=%288100%2Bd%29%2Fd\"
\n" ); document.write( "10d=8100+d
\n" ); document.write( "9d=8100
\n" ); document.write( "d=900
\n" ); document.write( "1800+d=9000
\n" ); document.write( "distance plane traveled to overtake ship=9000km
\n" ); document.write( "..
