A tailwind means you add thed velocity of the tailwind to the velovity of the plane (no need for any vectors etc. so you just need (7.5x 102) + 30 then convert it so it like one of the answers (btw - none of the answers is exactly correct - you need to round to get it) thats what you need to do to get the question
