The equation representing when the two planes would be at the same altitude is 9x=486
<h3>In terms of mathematics, what is an equation?</h3>
Equation: A declaration that two expressions with variables or integers are equal. In essence, equations are questions, and attempts to systematically identify the solutions to these questions have been the driving forces behind the creation of mathematics.
From (a) we get that: Altitude of Plane A = 990-18x
Altitude of Plane B = 1476-27x
make 890 - 18x = 1476-27x
-18x+27 x = 1476-890
9x=486
X= 54
so pass 54 seconds will the two plane at the same altitude.

4,000 multiplied by 6.75%=27,000
27,000 multiplied by 5 = 135,000
4,000-135,000=131,000 amount of interest paid
Perform indicated multiplication on left side first...
-5x-35<-10 add 35 to both sides
-5x<25 divide both sides by -5 (you must reverse sign because of division by a negative value too!)
x>5 or if you prefer...
x=(5, +oo)
