Answer:

The speed of private jet is 216 mph.

The speed of commercial jet is 270 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of private jet be x mph.

Then the speed of commercial jet will be = 2x-162

Equation forms:

10x=8(2x-162)

Solving for x;

10x=16x-1296

=> 10x-16x=-1296

=> -6x=-1296

So, x =216

Hence, the speed of private jet is = 216 mph

The speed of commercial jet is = 2(216)-162 = 270 mph

Commercial jet's speed = 2x-162 (plug this in the equation below)

Private jet's speed = x

Equation:

10(x) = 8(2x-162)
10x = 16x - 1296
6x = 1296
x = 216 (Private jet's speed)

Take the first equation and plug x value in;
2x-162
2(216) - 162 = 270 ( Commercial jet's speed)

What is the value of x?

50 will be the answer. Because one of the angle is exterior so we need to make that angle interior by 180- angle... then we use the method of finding the third side by

180-(<1+<2)
