Question

1. A jet transporting passengers was flying with a tailwind (with the

wind) and traveled 1120 mi in 2 h. Flying against the wind on the
return trip, the jet was able to travel only 980 mi in 2 h. Find the
speed of the jet in calm air and the rate of the wind. Identify the
variables, set a system of linear equations and solve, then write a
conclusion.

Answer 1

Jet speed 525.00 mph, wind speed 35.00 mph
