Plane #1 speed:  x mph
Plane #2 speed:  (x+30) mph

time = time becomes

170 mi        185 mi
---------- = --------------
      x             x+30

Solving for x, the speed of the slower plane, we get

170x + 5100 = 185 x
                                           5100
Then 15x = 5100, and x = ---------- (mi/hr) = 340 mph
                                              15

The slower plane flies at 340 mph, and the faster one at 370 mph.

How do I use substitution to solve
nekit [7.7K]
<span>The method of solving "by substitution" works by solving one of the equations (you choose which one) for one of the variables (you choose which one), and then plugging this back into the other equation, "substituting" for the chosen variable and solving for the other. Then you back-solve for the first variable.</span>
