1. At noon a private plane left Austin for Los Angeles, 2100 Km away, flying at 500 km/h. One hour later a jet left Los Angeles for Austin at 700 km/h. At what time did they pass each other?
500t + 700(t – 1)=2100 • 500t + 700t – 700= 2100 • +700=+700 • 1200t = 1400 • 1200 1200 • t= 1h and 20 minute • At noon 12 + 1= 13 and 20 minute • Or 1:20 P.M
