In need of a second opinion. i will give best answer to first reply.?

An airplane cruises at 120 km/h in still air. one day, when the wind was blowing steady from the west, the airplane travelled west (flying into the wind) and landed at its destination after 1.5 g. The airplanes return trip (flying with the wind) was only 1.0h long. On both legs, the airplane travelled at its cruising speed (measured with respect to the air surrounding the airplane)





a)Write a system of equations that would allow you to determine the speed of the wind blowing that day and the distance travelled each way.


d= 1.5 (120-x)


d= 1(120+x)





b) When solving the system of equations graphically, what equations would you enter into the equation editor? Fill in the blank calculator display.


y1=(120-x)1.5


y2= (120+x)1





c) Indicate what the variable X and Y represent.


x represents the windspeed, and y(d) represents the distance (y=)

In need of a second opinion. i will give best answer to first reply.?
Your answers are correct.





Distance = Speed * Time


(120 - x) km/h = Speed against the wind


(120 + x) km/h = Speed with the wind


1.5 hours = Time against the wind


1.0 hours = Time with the wind


D = D ; distance is the same in both directions





Nice work.
Reply:hi dear u should give some more details for resolve this question...??
