Answer: the second plane must travel 800 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the second plane.

By the time both planes will meet, they would have covered the same distance.

Distance = speed × time

The first plane travels at 400mph.

Since the second plane caught up with the first plane in 2 hours, then the distance covered by the first plane is

400 × 2 = 800 miles

The second plane leaves an hour after the first plane. This means that the time spent by the second plane before it caught up with the first plane is 1 hour

Distance covered by the second plane is x × 1 = x

Since the distance covered is the same, then

x = 800 mph

One inlet pipe can fill an empty pool in 12 hours, and a drain can empty the pool in 20 hours. How long will it take the pipe to
Andrei [34K]
<span>30 hours For this problem, going to assume that the actual flow rate for both pipes is constant for the entire duration of either filling or emptying the pool. The pipe to fill the pool I'll consider to have a value of 1/12 while the drain that empties the pool will have a value of 1/20. With those values, the equation that expresses how many hour it will take to fill the pool while the drain is open becomes: X(1/12 - 1/20) = 1 Now solve for X X(5/60 - 3/60) = 1 X(2/60) = 1 X(1/30) = 1 X/30 = 1 X = 30 To check the answer, let's see how much water would have been added over 30 hours. 30/12 = 2.5 So 2 and a half pools worth of water would have been added. Now how much would be removed? 30/20 = 1.5 And 1 and half pools worth would have been removed. So the amount left in the pool is 2.5 - 1.5 = 1 And that's exactly the amount needed.</span>
