Answer: the speed of the plane in still air is 135 km/h
the speed of the wind is 23 km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the plane in still air.
Let y represent the speed of the wind.
Flying to England with a tailwind a plane averaged 158km/h. This means that the total speed of the plane is (x + y) km/h. Therefore,
x + y = 158 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -1
On the return trip, the plane only averaged 112 km/h while flying back in the same wind. This means that the total speed of the plane is (x - y) km/h. Therefore,
x - y = 112 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Adding equation 1 to equation 2, it becomes
2x = 270
x = 270/2 = 135 km/h
Substituting x = 135 into equation 2, it becomes
135 - y = 112
y = 135 - 112
y = 23 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
16cats and 19 birds
Step-by-step explanation:
if we say that x is birds and y is cats we can say that:
4.5x+8.5y=221.5 ( the amount birds and cat both need)
y+x =35 (number of cats and cats)
x=35-y
4.5(35-y) +8.5y= 221.5
157.5-4.5y +8.5y =221.5
4y=64
y= 16
16+x=35
x=19
Answer:
0.4 I'm sorry if it wrong
Answer:
The correct answer would be 54 hundreds
Step-by-step explanation:
If we are considering how many hundreds something has, we can simply take away two 0's and use that number. We take the two 0's off and then we have the right number of hundreds
