Respuesta :

 bird leaves its nest and travels 20 miles per hour downwind for x hours.
On the return trip, the bird travels 4 miles per hour slower and has 6 miles left after x hours.
:
A) What is the distance of the entire trip
dist = speed * time

d = 20x + 16x + 6
d = 36x + 6 miles
:
B) How long does the entire trip take? 
time = dist/speed
t = 2x + 
t = 2x +  hrs
I think that this is the answer, but I am not . sure
