You can put this solution on YOUR website! plane b is flying 30 mph faster than plane a. find the time is takes for plane b to travel 660 miles if it takes plane a the same amount of time to travel 600 miles.
***
let x=speed of plane a
x+30=speed of plane b
travel time=distance/speed
..
600x+18000=660x
60x=18000
x=300
600/x=2
time is takes for plane b to travel 660 miles=2hrs
