Asked by Avery

A ship travels from New York to southampton, england at 33 miles per hour. A plane traveling 605 miles per hour takes 104 hours less time to make the same trip. How far apart are the two cities?
Answered by Reiny
let the distance between the cities be d miles
time for plane = d/605
time for ship = d/33

solve for d

d/33 - d/605 = 104

( I got d = 3630)
