Question

Jim is a paratrooper who has to land on a moving aircraft carrier. If his plane is flying with 90 miles per hour, he will be an hour early for the intercross. If his plane travels at a speed of 80 miles per hour, he will be an hour late for landing on the ship. How long is Jim’s scheduled flight-time?
since distance = speed * time,

90(t-1) = 80(t+1)
