Flight 725 left New York at 10:28 a.m. flying north.
\n" ); document.write( " Flight 245 left from the same airport at 11:18 a.m. flying south at one hundred
\n" ); document.write( "twenty kph less than three times the speed of flight 725.
\n" ); document.write( " At 1:06 p.m. they are 1,030 kilometers apart.
\n" ); document.write( " What is the average rate of speed for Flight 725?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let s = speed of flt 725
\n" ); document.write( "then it says:
\n" ); document.write( "\"Flt 245 at one hundred twenty kph less than three times the speed of flight 725.\"
\n" ); document.write( "therefore:
\n" ); document.write( "(3s-120) = speed of flt 245
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find the flying time of each aircraft change 1:06 to 13:06
\n" ); document.write( "Flt 725: 13:06 to 10:28: 12:66 - 10:28 = 2 hr 38 min or \"158%2F60\" = 79/30 hrs
\n" ); document.write( "Flt 245: 13:06 to 11:18: 12:66 - 11:18 = 48 min or \"4%2F5\" hrs
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Write a distance equation: dist = speed * time
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Flt 725 dist + Flt 245 dist = 1030 km
\n" ); document.write( "\"79%2F30\"s + \"4%2F5\"(3s-120) = 1030
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply by 30, results:
\n" ); document.write( "79s + 6*4(3s-120) = 30(1030)
\n" ); document.write( "79s + 24(3s-120) = 30900
\n" ); document.write( "79s + 72s - 2880 = 30900
\n" ); document.write( "151s = 30900 + 2880
\n" ); document.write( "151s = 33780
\n" ); document.write( "s = \"33780%2F151\"
\n" ); document.write( "s = 223.7 km/hr is flt 725
\n" ); document.write( "
