Answer:
The velocity of jet in still air is 
and velocity of wind is
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the rate of the jet in still air and y be the rate of the wind.
Given:
Velocity against wind, a jet travels 2160 miles in 3 hours.
Velocity against wind 
Flying with the wind, same jet travels 6000 miles in 6 hours.
Flying with the wind 
As such its velocity against wind is 
and with wind is
therefore
------------(1)
---------------(2)
Adding equation 1 and 2.
Put x value in equation 2
Hence velocity of jet in still air is and velocity of wind is
.
(2x - 5) (5x - 10)
Use FOIL
10x² - 20x - 25x + 50
10x² - 45x + 50
5( 2x² - 9x + 10)
2x -5
x -2
5(2x - 5)(x -2)
make each equal to 0
2x - 5 = 0
x - 2 = 0
2x - 5 = 0 x - 2 = 0
2x - 5 (+5) = 0 x - 2 (+2) = 0 (+2)
2x = 5 x = 2
x = 5/2
x = 5/2 , 2
hope this helps
