A military jet flies directly over and at right angles to the straight-line course of a commercial jet. The military jet is flying 200 mph faster than four times the commercial jet. How fast is each going if they are 2050 miles apart (on a direct line) after 1 hour?

this is my answer, please help!!!!

2050=4c+200+c
5c+200=2050
5c=2050-200
5c=1850
c=370

m=370*4+200
m=1680

commercial jet is 370 mph, military is 1680 mph

IS THIS CORRECT?
