It takes 6 hours for a plane to travel 720 km with a tail wind and 8 hours to make the return trip with a head wind. Find the air speed of the plane and the speed of the wind current.

I already have part of the answer done. I have found the equation for the tailwind and the headwind. Tailwind: \[720=6r\] \[120=r\] Headwind: \[720=8r\] \[90=r\] I do not know how to insert/apply the air speed (A) and the wind speed (W).
