Question 861365: Two planes start from Manila Airport and fly in opposite direction. The second plane starts 0.5 hours after the first plane, but its speed is 80 km/h.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! 80 kmph is very slow for a plane
3200=1.5*80+2r
3200=120+2r
3080-2r
1540=r
Are you sure it is 3200 and not 320
320=1.5*80+2r
200=2r
r=100
