Math Problem Statement
An air traffic controller is tracking two planes. To start, Plane A is at an altitude of 3000 feet and Plane B is at an altitude of 1623 feet. Plane A is gaining altitude at 30.25 feet per second and Plane B is gaining altitude at 55.75 feet per second. How many seconds will pass before the planes are at the same altitude? What will their altitude be when they're at the same altitude?
