Question 333913: how do you do this word problem?
At 6:00 am a plane left center airport and flew south at 475 km/h. It's destination was Upton, which was 2000 km away. An hour later, a second left the airport and also flew south. How fast did the second plane fly if it overtook the first plane at 9:00 am?
Thanks! Answer by checkley77(12844) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! D=RT
D=475*3 FOR THE PLANE THAT LEFT @ 6:00.
D=R*2
1,425=2R
2R=1,425
R=1,425/2
R=712,5 KPH. WAS THE SPEED OF THE SECOND PLANE.
