Answer:

Explanation:

We also know that, v = S/t which can be rewritten as v * t = S

Where,

v = velocity

S = distance

t = time

i. v1*t = S1

ii. v2*t = S2

iii. s1 + s2 = 3000

Substituting i and ii into equation iii,

St = S1 + S2

v1*t + v2*t = 3000

650*t + 550*t = 3000

1200*t = 3000

t = 3000/1200

t = 2.5 h.

Answer:

30 hours

Explanation:

Average speed = distance/time

Let the time taken for each plane to pass each other be t

Average speed of plane that left from New York = 650 mph

Distance covered = 650t miles

Average speed of plane that left from Mexico = 550 mph

Distance covered = 550t miles

Distance apart = 3000 miles

650t - 550t = 3000

100t = 3000

t = 3000/100 = 30 hours
