X - y = 2400/6 = 400 where x = speed of plane and y = speed of wind.
x + y = 2400/5 = 480 - flying with the wind
adding the 2 equations
2x = 880
x = 440
Speed of the plane with no wind = 440 mph
Answer:
KL = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
JK + KL = JL
2x – 2 + x – 9 = 2x + 8
Combine like terms
3x -11 = 2x+8
Subtract 2x from each side
3x-2x -11 = 2x+8-2x
x-11 = 8
Add 11 to each side
x-11+11 = 8+11
x = 19
KL = x – 9
= 19-9
= 10
Let's call the number you thought of n. Then what the two steps you took can be written as an equation:

Subtract n to get all of your variables to one side:

At this point, I recommend turning your mixed number into an improper fraction. It will make things easier later on:

Now divide both sides by 11 to get the value of n:
