Question 760257: two planes leave an airport at the same time, one flying north at 450 mph and the other flying south at 550 mph. in how many hours will they 2000 miles apart? Answer by Cromlix(4381) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! In two hours.
North flying plane would have covered 900 miles
South flying plane would have covered 1100 miles
= 900 + 1100 miles
= 2000 miles.
Hope this helps.
