Answer should be B.
second choice
Answer:
Aircraft carrier speed = 4.97 km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the time taken by the aircraft = 5 hours
Let the distance covered = X
Speed = V
Time taken by the ship = 7 hours
Let the distance covered = Y
Speed = 8V
Since it is 8 km/h faster than the aircraft carrier.
Using the speed formula
Speed = distance/time
Distance = speed × time
For the aircraft;
X = 5V
For the ship:
Y = 7 × 8V = 56V
Since they are 303km distance apart,
X + Y = 303
5V + 56V = 303
61V = 303
V = 303/61
V = 4.97 km/h
Aircraft carrier speed = 4.97 km/h
