A pilot can travel for 140 miles with the wind in the same amount of time as 360 miles against the wind. Find the speed of the w
quester [9]

Answer:

  -88 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the relation ...

  time = distance/speed

to compare the times in the two directions.

  \dfrac{140}{200+w}=\dfrac{360}{200-w}\\\\140(200-w)=360(200+w)\\\\200(140-360)=w(360+140)\\\\w=\dfrac{200(-220)}{500}=-88 \quad\text{miles per hour}

The wind speed is -88 miles per hour.

_____

The problem statement tells us the travel is slower <em>with</em> the wind than <em>against</em> the wind. Hence "with the wind" must be subtracting from the net speed. That is, the wind speed is negative.
