You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You can think of this as one plane standing still
\n" ); document.write( "and the other one approaching at the sum of their
\n" ); document.write( "speeds.
\n" ); document.write( "Let \"+t+\" = time in hours until they pass each other
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "\"+2375+=+%28+550+%2B+600+%29%2At+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+2375+=+1150t+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+t+=+2375+%2F+1150+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+t+=+2.0652+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+.0652%2A60+=+3.913+\"
\n" ); document.write( "They will pass each other in 2 hrs 4 min\r
