A pilot flew a 400-mile flight in 2.5 hours flying into the wind. Flying the same rate and with the same wind speed, the return
trip took only 2 hours, with a tailwind.
What was the speed of the wind?
1 answer:
Answer:
40 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Distance = 400 miles
Without tailwind :
Time taken = 2.5 hours
Speed = distance / time
Speed = 400 miles / 2. 5
Speed = 160 miles per hour
With tail wind :
Time taken = 2 hours
Net speed = 160 + x
X. = speed of tail wind
Distance = speed * time
400 = (160 + x) * 2
400 = 320 + 2x
400 - 320 = 2x
80 = 2x
x = 40
Speed of tailwind = 40 miles per hour.

Y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - 2 = 4(x - 7)
y - 2 = 4(x) - 4(7)
y - 2 = 4x - 28
+ 2 + 2
y = 4x - 26
All this means is (f(x)) + (g(x))
2x-1+ x^2-3x-2=
=== x^2 - x -3
