    Plane 1 travels 20 miles farther than plane 2 in an hour.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To compare the distances, compare the speed of each plane. The speed of plane 1 is 290 miles per hour in d (t) = 290t.

    Plane 2 travels 540 miles over 2 hours. Its speed is 540/2 = 270 miles per hour.

    Plane 1 will travel 20 miles farther than plane 2 in an hour.
