Question 65434: a commercial jet travels 2400 miles in the same amount of time it takes a corporate jet to travel 1600 miles. the rate of the commercial jet is 200 mph faster than the rate of the corporate jet. find the rate of each jet. Answer by checkley71(8403) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2400/X=1600/(X-200)
1600X=2400X-480000
-800X=-480000
X=-480000/-800
X=600 FOR THE COMMERCIAL JET
800-200=600 FOR THE CORPORATE JET
