Question 1157943
A private jet flies the same distance in 15 hours that a commercial jet flies in 10 hours.  If the speed of the commercial jet was 98mph less than 2 times the speed of the private jet, find the speed of each jet.
====================
c = commercial jet's speed
p = private jet's speed
---
same distance in 15 hours that a commercial jet flies in 10 hours
----> c = 1.5p
c = 2p - 98
---
1.5p = 2p - 98
-0.5p = -98
p = 196 mi/hr
c = 294 mi/hr
=====================
Not worth a Master's Thesis, IMO.
=========
Slow jets.
