A plane decides to travel along AB towards the North with a velocity of V.

Step-by-step explanation:

The wind has a speed of w and a direction α with the vertical.  The x component of that speed is w sin α.  The y component is -w cos α.

In order to stay on the north trajectory AB, the plane must have a horizontal speed of -w sin α.  The plane's speed is v, so using Pythagorean theorem, the y component of the plane's speed is:

v² = (-w sin α)² + vᵧ²

v² = w² sin²α + vᵧ²

vᵧ = √(v² − w² sin²α)

The total vertical speed is therefore √(v² − w² sin²α) − w cos α.

If a is the length of AB, then the time is:

t = a / [√(v² − w² sin²α) − w cos α]

To rationalize the denominator, we multiply by the conjugate.

t = a / [√(v² − w² sin²α) − w cos α] × [√(v² − w² sin²α) + w cos α] / [√(v² − w² sin²α) + w cos α]

t = a [√(v² − w² sin²α) + w cos α] / (v² − w² sin²α − w² cos²α)

t = a [√(v² − w² sin²α) + w cos α] / (v² − w²)

\bf \begin{cases} f(x) = x\\ g(x) = 2x+7 \end{cases}~\hspace{7em}g(x)=11\implies \stackrel{g(x)}{11}=2x+7 \\\\\\ 4=2x\implies \cfrac{4}{2}=x\implies \implies \boxed{2=x} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ f[90x]\implies f\left[90\left( \boxed{2} \right)\right]\implies f(180)=\stackrel{x}{180}
