To solve the above question we use the concept of relative speed.
The rates of the two planes are 625 mph and 575 mph. 
Relative speed will be:
[speed of plane A]+[speed of plane B]
=625+575
=1,200 mph
Distance=4200 miles
Thus the time taken for them to meet will be:
Time=distance/speed
=4200/1200
=3.5 hours
We therefore conclude that the planes met after 3.5 hours

Viefleur [7K]

Given :

The Mad Hat Company must ship two different-sized boxes: The small ones cost them 45 cents each and weigh 6 ounces, and the large ones weigh 25 ounces and cost $1.20 each.

The total shipment this morning weighed 20 pounds 7 ounces and cost $18.45.

To Find :

How many packages of each size were shipped.

Solution :

We know, 1 pound = 16 ounces.

So, 20 pound = 20×16 = 320 ounces.

Let, number of large and small box are l and s.

So,

25l + 6s = 327 ...1)

0.45s + 1.20l = 18.45 ...2)

Solving both the equations, we get :

x = 9 and y = 17

Therefore, package smaller and big size are 17 and 9 respectively .

Hence, this is the required solution.
