Answer:

Time in the air  t₁  =  7 s

Time in the sea t₂ =  5 s

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the equation:   v =  d/t , where:

v is the average speed,

d the distance traveled, and

t time doing the trip

From v = d/t    ⇒  d = v*t

Therefore, if we call t₁ time in the air, and t₂ time in the sea, according to problem statement, we have:

t₁  +  t₂  = 12        (1)

16*t₁  +  3*t₂  = 127    (2)

A two equation system, from equation (1) we get

t₂  = 12 - t₁

And by substitution in equaton (2)

16*t₁  + 3 * ( 12 - t₁ ) = 127

16*t₁  + 36 - 3*t₁  = 127

13*t₁   = 91

t₁  = 91 /13

t₁ = 7 s

And    t₂  = 12 - 7

t₂ = 5 s
