Solve.A plane flying with a tailwind flew at a speed of 400 mph, relative to the ground. When flying against the tailwind, it flew at a speed of 340 mph. Express these relationships as equations. Let x be the speed of the plane and let y be the speed of the wind.

A. x + y = 340
y = 400
B. x + y = 400
x - y = 340
C. x + y = 340
x - y = 400
D. x + y = 400
y = 340
