At the moment when Alice passes Jane, she has traveled one less hour than Jane,

and they have both traveled the same distance.

Let 'H' be the number of hours since 7 AM.

Jane's distance is 40H. Alice's distance is 50(H-1). The distances are equal.

40H = 50(H-1) = 50H - 50

Add 50 to each side:

40H + 50 = 50H

Subtract 40H from each side:

50 = 10H

Divide each side by 10:

5 = H

They wave at (7 + 5) = 12:00 Noon.
