w represents the speed of the wind
p represents the speed of the plane
960 = 4(p + w)
960 = 6(p - w)
Can you solve for w and answer?

asked 12/04/20When a plane flies with the wind, it can fly 960 miles in 4 hours. When the plane flies in the opposite direction, against the wind, it takes 6 hours to fly the same distance.
