Two planes leave Dallas at the same time. One heads east at a speed of 428 miles per hour. The other plane heads west at a speed of 382 miles per hour. How many hours will it take them to be 2,025 miles apart?

Respuesta :

Let the # of hrs be h.

Then (428 mph)(h) + (382 mph)(h) = 2025 miles

Solve this for h.  Divide (428+382) into 2025:  h = 2.5 hours (answer)
