How long does it take for the plane to travel a distance of 750 miles?

I needed help with this physics question thank you:


A Plane that can travel at 460mph in still air is flying with a tailwind of 40mph. How long does it take for the plane to travel a distance of 750 miles?|||A tailwind is a wind blowing in the same direction as that of the course of the plane. So the total velocity is 460 + 40 = 500mph.


So 500miles in 1 hour =%26gt; it takes 1 and a half hours for 750 miles.
