A private jet can fly 837 miles against a 15-mph headwind in the same amount of time it can fly 1023 miles with a 15-mph tailwind. Find the speed of the jet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notes:

Headwind opposes forward motion, meaning that the plane moves slower.

Tailwind boosts forward motion, meaning that the plane moves faster.

Given:

The jet can fly 837 miles against a 15-mph headwind.

The jet can fly 1023 miles with a 15-mph Tailwind, given the same amount of time for the headwind.

Solve:

We're trying to find the speed of the jet when there's no wind boosting or counteracting the speed.

The speed has to be in-between 837 and 1023.

Let's find the number in-between 837 and 1023.

Subtract:

Divide 186 by 2:

Add 93 to 837:

The plane's speed is 930 miles without no wind, in the given time.

b. would be the answer : )

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: add -16x to both sides.

16x−4y+−16x=64+−16x  

−4y=−16x+64

step 2: divide both sides by -4.

−4y /-4 = -16x + 64/-4

answer:   y=4x−16
