A pilot wants to arrive at her destination as soon as possible. Air traffic is busy, so she can take off 10 minutes later than e
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

y = x/3 + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y be the number of minutes the flight takes

She can take off 10 minutes later than expected. She will be able to travel at  a speed three times than expected.

Let her expected speed be s, therefore, she can travel at 3s.

x = number of minutes the flight was expected to take.

In terms of distance and speed:

x = d / s ______(1)

where d = total distance traveled

The time for the flight (minus waiting time) is now the division of the distance she traveled and her speed, i.e.:

t = d / 3s

From (1):

=> t = x / 3

The time she spent waiting is 10 minutes.

Therefore, the total time that the flight takes (plus waiting time) is:

y = t + 10

=> y = x/3 + 10

the 10 comes from 9+1

Then cross multiply and solve for x

the terms cancel out just leaving behind a nice linear function.
