A pilot was scheduled to depart at 4:00 pm, but due to air traffic, her departure has been delayed by 16 minutes. Air traffic control approved a new flight plan that will allow her to arrive four times faster than she calculated in her original flight plan. Let x represent the time, in minutes, of her original flight. Create an equation that can be used to predict the number of minutes after 4:00 pm she will arrive at her destination.

Respuesta :

Using the equation y=x/4+16, it is possible to estimate how many minutes will pass after 4:00 pm when she reaches her destination.

What is equation?

The definition of an equation in algebra is a mathematical statement that demonstrates the equality of two mathematical expressions. For instance, the equation 3x + 5 = 14 consists of the two expressions 3x + 5 and 14, which are separated by the 'equal' sign.

Here,

Let x be the time of original flight before delay.

Let y be the new time of flight after delay.

She will to arrive 4 times faster that in original flight time,

y=x/4

The flight is delayed by 16 minutes,

y=x/4+16

The equation that can be used to predict the number of minutes after 4:00 pm she will arrive at her destination will be y=x/4+16.
