Answer:

The speed of the jet in still air is 260 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a small jet can fly 858 miles in 3 hours with a tailwind but only 702 miles in 3 hours into a headwind, to find the speed of the jet in still air the following calculation must be performed:

858/3 = 286

702/3 = 234

(286 - 234) / 2 = X

52/2 = X

26 = X

286 - 26 = 234 + 26

260 = 260

Therefore, the speed of the jet in still air is 260 miles per hour.

So to answer all of them ( I don’t know if you want that it Imma do it anyways). For the first question: Name a radius - QR. For the second question: Name a diameter - NR. For question three: Name a chord - OP. For the last question: If the length of QS is 8 units, what is the length of NR: Since QS is a radius than the length of NR would be 16. Hope this helps!
