an airship flies 150 km with the wind and then turn around and flies back taking 5 hour and 30 min round trip. Find the speed of the airship in calm weather is 55 mph.

Respuesta :

Answer:

150=(55-c)(5.5-t)

5.5-t=150/(55-c)

-t=(150-302.5+5.5c)/(55-c)

t=(152.5-5.5c)/(55-c)

150=(55+c)t   using t found about

150=(55+c)(152.5-5.5c)/(55-c)

8250-150c=8387.5-302.5c+152.5c-5.5c^2

5.5c^2=137.5

c^2=25

c=5

So the current is 5mph.
