Question

Two planes, A and B, start from the same place and move in different dire

plane B is 300 miles per hour.
The two planes are
miles apart after one hour.

Answer 1

Okay, let's break this down step-by-step:

• Planes A and B start from the same place and move in different directions.
• Plane B moves at 300 miles per hour.
• After 1 hour, planes A and B are 200 miles apart.

To determine the speed of plane A, we can set up a simple equation relating their speeds and the distance between them after 1 hour:

Speed of plane B = 300 mph

Distance between planes after 1 hour = 200 miles

So if we let v = speed of plane A in mph, we have:

300 + v = 200

v = 100

Therefore, the speed of plane A is 100 miles per hour.
