Question

A jet plane flying with the wind went 910 mi in 2 h. Flying against the wind, the plane could only fly 700 mi in the same amount of time. Find the rate of the plane in calm air and the rate of the wind. (Round your answers to one decimal place.)

Answer 1

910 = 2(p + w)

700 = 2(p - w)

Can you distribute and solve for eithe p or w and answer?
