Algebra.Com's Answer #721932 by Boreal(15235) You can put this solution on YOUR website! The speed against the wind is 6300/7=900 km/h \n" ); document.write( "With it is 11200/8=1400 km/h \n" ); document.write( "x+w=1400 \n" ); document.write( "x-w=900 \n" ); document.write( "2x=2300 \n" ); document.write( "x=1150 km/h speed of plane \n" ); document.write( "w=250 km/h speed of wind \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
