an air traffic controller spots two planes at the same altitude flying towards one another. their flight paths form a right angle at point p. One plane is 150 miles from point p and is moving 450mph. the other plane is moving at 450mph but is 200 miles from point p. write the distance d between the planes as a function of time t.

Answer 1

The first plane will reach p in 150/450 hours or 20 minutes. At that point, the second plane will be 50 miles away from point p.
