Answer:400 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w = speed at which the plane travelled west

Let s = speed at which the plane travelled south

Distance moved in 5 hrs heading west = 5*w = 5w

Distance moved in 4 hrs heading south = 4*s = 4s

Total distance, 3444= 5w + 4s

w = s + 39( 39 miles/hr faster)

5(s+39) + 4s = 3444

5s + 195 + 4s = 3444

9s = 3249

s = 361 miles per hour

w = s + 39 = 361 +39

= 400 miles per hour

Answer:

<h2>x = 2, y = 6 → (2, 6)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\bold{ELIMINATION\ METHOD}\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=-x+8\\y=x+4&\TEXT{change the signs}\end{array}\right\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=-x+8\\-y=-x-4\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad0=-2x+4\qquad\text{add}\ 2x\ \text{to both sides}\\.\qquad2x=4\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\.\qquad\boxed{x=2}\\\\\text{Put it to the second equation}\\y=2+4\\\boxed{y=6}

\bold{SUBSTITUTION\ METHOD}\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=-x+8&(1)\\y=x+4&(2)\end{array}\right\\\\\text{Substitute (1) to (2)}\\\\-x+8=x+4\qquad\text{subtract 8 from both sides}\\-x=x-4\qquad\text{subtract}\ x\ \text{from both sides}\\-x-x=-4\\-2x=-4\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-2)}\\\boxed{x=2}\\\\\text{Put it to the second equation}\\y=2+4\\\boxed{y=6}
