Answers:

  • airspeed = 42 mph
  • wind speed = 12 mph

============================================================

Explanation:

Let's solve the first equation for y

18 = (x+y)\frac{1}{3}\\\\18*3 = x+y\\\\54 = x+y\\\\x+y = 54\\\\y = 54-x\\\\

Then we'll plug this into the second equation and solve for x

18 = (x-y)*\frac{3}{5}\\\\18 = (x-(y))*\frac{3}{5}\\\\18 = (x-(54-x))*\frac{3}{5}\\\\18 = (x-54+x)*\frac{3}{5}\\\\18 = (2x-54)*\frac{3}{5}\\\\18*5 = 3(2x-54)\\\\90 = 6x-162\\\\6x-162 = 90\\\\6x = 90+162\\\\6x = 252\\\\x = 252/6\\\\x = 42\\\\

This is the average airspeed of the plane, in miles per hour (mph). It's the speed without accounting for the wind. If there's no wind at all, then this would be the ground speed of the plane.

Use this value of x to find y

y = 54-x

y = 54-42

y = 12

The average speed of the wind is 12 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

  9 1/16 rounded to the nearest whole number is 9.

  645 3/5 rounded to the nearest hundred is 600.

Multiplying these values gives a product of 9·600 = 5400.

The product is approximately 5400.
