The airplane flies 1080 miles against the wind in 4 hours and the return trip takes 3 hours. Find the speed of the airplane with no wind and the speed of the wind.
\n" ); document.write( " I know that it is d=r*t
\n" ); document.write( " flying against the wind
\n" ); document.write( " (A-W) *4= 1080
\n" ); document.write( " A-W= 1080/4= 270
\n" ); document.write( " flying with the wind
\n" ); document.write( " (A+W)* 3= 1080
\n" ); document.write( " A+W=1080/4= 360 ******** 1080/3 = 360
\n" ); document.write( " Is this correct? What do I do next?
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "It's correct except for the noted typo
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "a - w = 270
\n" ); document.write( "a + w = 360
\n" ); document.write( "-------------- Add
\n" ); document.write( "2a = 630
\n" ); document.write( "a = 315
\n" ); document.write( "w = 45
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
