Traveling Boss Example
A 555-mile, 5-hour plane trip was flown at two speeds. For the first part of the trip, the average speed was 105 mph. Then the tailwind picked up, and the remainder of the trip was flown at an average speed of 115 mph. For how long did the plane fly at each speed?

I like to use tables so let's put a table together. (Write this on your paper)

Let's fill in the information we know.

Lets use some algebra to think about how to fill in the other boxes.

After setting up the table it will be easy.
