Finite math word problems
5. Let the speed of the plane in calm air be x and
The effect of the wind on the plane’s speed be y
The speed of the plane can be expressed as:
While flowing with the wind = 𝑥 + 𝑦
While flowing against the wind= 𝑥 − 𝑦
The speed of the plane:
while flying with the wind =

800
4

while flying against the week=

= 200 miles/hour

800
5

= 160miles/hour

Therefore:
𝑥 + 𝑦 = 200
𝑥 − 𝑦 = 160
Subtracting the second equation from the first equation, we have
(𝑥 + 𝑦 = 200) − (𝑥 − 𝑦 = 160)
2𝑦 = 40
𝑌 = 20
The speed of the wind therefore = 20miles/hr
Substituting y in the first equation we have:
𝑋 + 20 = 200
𝑋 = 180
The speed of the plane in calm air therefore= 180miles/hour
And the speed of the wind = 20miles/hour
