Flying against the wind, a jet travels 4400mi in 8 hours. Flying with the wind, the same jet travels 5820mi in 6 hours. What is the rate of the jet in still air and what is the rate of the wind?

Respuesta :

distance=6390km; time=9 hrs; rate=710kph
With the wind Data:
distance=5150km; time=5hrs; rate=1030kph
EQUATIONS:

airspeed+jetstream=1030
airspeed-jetstream=710
Subtract these equations to get:
2jetstream=320kph
jetstream=160mph
