A plane leaves an airport at 3 p.m. At 4 p.m another plane leaves the same airport traveling in the same direction at a speed 150 km/h faster than that of the first plane. Four hours after the first plane takes off, the second plane is 250km ahead of the first plane. How far has the second plane traveled?

I have no clue as to where I should start. Is there even enough information? Anyways, sorry that I don't have any fg available atm. Would be great to figure this out.

Ok.

Plane 1 and plane 2.

Velocity of plane 1 is V1=V1

V2=V1+150

Distance traveled by plane 1 is D1=V1*T1=V1*(4)
Where T1 is time flown

D2=V2*T2=(V1+150)(3)

Also D2=D1+250

Give that a try

Edit *Lmk if you get it or need more help. Flail a bit with it before you ask for more help. Solve for different variables and plug in different ways
