Question 71443: 4x + y = 16, 2x + 3y = 24
I have tried mul. the 1st equation by -3. Then adding the 2 together. I have tried mul. 2nd equation by -2, then adding the 2 together. I have tried y = 16 - 4x, then tried to substitute y into the 2nd equation. I can't seem to figure it out.

Question 73230: I would really appreciate any help I could get on this question. Word problems are sooo very challenging sometimes and I just cannot figure out how to do this one :<(
An airplane took 2.5 hours to fly 625 miles with the wind. It took 4 hours and 10 minutes to make the return trip against the same wind. Find the wind speed and the speed of the plane in still air.
(All I can see is that if you convert both times traveled into minutes then there is a 100 minute difference and divided by 625 miles would be 6.25 miles per minute but which part of the question would this answer and is it even relevent to either question??)
Thanks so much in advance for any help that can be provided :>)

Question 73692: Hi - could someone please provide some help on this one? Thanks so very much in advance!
One train leaves a station heading due west. Two hours later a second train leaves the same station heading due east. The second train is traveling 15mi/h faster than the first. Six hours after the second train leaves, the two trains are 580 miles apart. Find the rate at which each train is traveling.
(I think I am getting confused by the fact that the second train leaves 2 hours after the first rather than at the same time)
Thanks again for any help on this one :>)
