If a bird flies 80km/h with the wind but only 40km/h against the wind. What is the bird speed in still air? What is the speed of the wind?
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Equations::
\n" ); document.write( "With wind:: b + w = 80 km/hr
\n" ); document.write( "Against ::: b - w = 40 km/hr
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "Add and solve for \"b\":
\n" ); document.write( "2b = 120
\n" ); document.write( "b = 60 km/hr (speed of the bird in still air)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"w\":
\n" ); document.write( "b + w = 80
\n" ); document.write( "60 + w = 80
\n" ); document.write( "w = 20 km/hr (speed of the wind)
