You can put this solution on YOUR website! Two planes left at the same time from two airports that are 1550 miles apart and flew toward each other.
One plane flew 330 mph, and the other flew 370 mph.
In how many hours were the planes still 150 miles apart.
:
Let t = no. hours till they were 150 mi apart
330t + 370t = 1550 - 150
800t = 1400
t = 1400/800
t = 1.75 hrs
