Flying against the wind, an airplane travels 2670 kilometers

Flying against the wind, an airplane travels 2670 kilometers in 3 hours. Flying with the wind, the same plane travels 6150 kilometers in 5 hours. What is the rate of the plane in still air and what is the rate of the wind? Note that the ALEKS graphing calculator can be used to make computations easier.
