Answer:

Speed of wind = 23.63 miles per hour

Plane speed in still air = 260 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken with wind = 5 hour

Time taken against wind = 6 hour

Assume;

Speed of wind = s

So,

Speed of Plane with wind = (260 + s) miles per hour

Speed of Plane against wind = (260 - s) miles per hour

Distance = speed x time

So,

(260 + s)5 = (260 - s)6

1,300 + 5s = 1,560 - 6s

11s = 260

s = 23.63 miles per hour

Speed of wind = 23.63 miles per hour

Plane speed in still air = 260 miles per hour

Answer:

d=45h

Step-by-step explanation:

If we look at the chart, it shows that 1 hour is equal to 45 miles. Then, 2 hours is equal to 90 miles and so on. This means that for every hour the distance is 45 miles. Therefore, the distance=45 miles times the number of hours. This is equivalent to d=45h The number 45 is equal to the number of miles and the "h" is equal to the amount of hours. I hope I didnt confuse you in the process of writing this and have a good day!
