An airplane has a cruising speed of 150 miles per hour when there is no wind. At this speed the airplane flew 300 miles in the wind in the same amount of time as it flew 200 miles against the wind. Find the wind speed.

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.

the answer is d
