Question 1095912: The total flying time for a round trip between City A and City B is 8 h. Because of the jet stream, the time going is not equal to the time returning. Express, in terms of t, the flying time between City A and City B in terms of the flying time between City B and City A. Answer by jorel1380(3719) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let s be the speed of the plane, and j be the speed of the jet stream, and d be the distance between the cities. Then:
d/(s+j) + d/(s-j)=8
