Answer:

22.5 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given system of equations</u>

5(s-w)=900

4(s+w)=900

<u />

<u>Set equations equal to each other</u>

5(s-w)=4(s+w)

5s-5w=4s+4w

s-5w=4w

s=9w

<u>Solve for w using the substitution s=9w</u>

4(s+w)=900

4(9w+w)=900

4(10w)=900

40w=900

w=22.5

Therefore, the speed of the wind is 22.5 miles per hour

wel

Answer:

It is possible, because the two shortest sides have to add up to be more than the longest side, and 8 + 12 = 20, which is more than the longest side of 17.
