Algebra.Com's Answer #121302 by Fombitz(32388)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Rate x Time = Distance \n" ); document.write( "Rate with wind = Speed of Plane in calm air + Speed of Wind= \n" ); document.write( "Rate against wind = Speed of Plane in calm air - Speed of Wind= \n" ); document.write( "Distance is the same in both cases. \n" ); document.write( "Time with : \n" ); document.write( "Time against : \n" ); document.write( "Distance with : \n" ); document.write( "Distance against : \n" ); document.write( "Generate your two rate equations ( \n" ); document.write( "Solve for P and W. \n" ); document.write( " |
