Algebra.Com's Answer #230690 by Fombitz(32388) You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let V be the plane speed, W the wind speed. \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "Rate*Time=Distance \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "1. \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "2. \n" ); document.write( "Add eq. 1 and eq. 2, \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Then use either equation to solve for W. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
