an airplane travels 5424 km against the wind in 8 hours and 6624 km with the wind in the same amount of time. what is the rate of the plane in still air and what is the rate of the wind?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The rate of the plane is 753 km/h while the rate of the wind is 75km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the rate of the plane in still air and the rate of the wind.

Since we do not know these rates, we shall be representing both using variables.

Let’s represent the rate of the plane in still air by x kmph while the rate of the wind be represented by y kmph

Now, for us to calculate the speed of the plane while it travels against the wind, that would be the speed of the plane in still air minus the speed of the wind.

Mathematically, that would be (x-y) kmph

Now the speed of the plane while it travels with the wind would be its speed in still air plus the speed of the wind.

Mathematically, that would be;

(x + y) kmph

From the question;

The plane journeyed 5424 km against the speed in 8 hours, this means that its speed will be 5424/8 = 678 kmph

Thus, that means;

x -y = 678 •••••••(i)

Now, traveling with the wind , its speed will be ;

6624/8 = 828 kmph

Thus;

x + y = 828 kmph •••••••(ii)

So we have two equations to solve simultaneously;

Let’s add both together;

x -y + x + y = 828+ 678

2x = 1,506

x = 1506/2

x = 753 kmph

From ii

x + y = 828

y = 828 - x

y = 828 - 753

y = 75 kmph

what are scaled copies? and how to use them?

Answers

Answer:

A scale copy of a figure is a figure that is geometrically similar to the original figure. This means that the scale copy and the original figure have the same shape but possibly different sizes. First you have to look at one of the sides of the scaled copy. If they are divisible by the numbers in the original shape, then try and see if the others sides of the scaled copy are scaled by the same factor. If they are, then they are a scaled copy.

An image is a scaled copy of the original if the shape is stretched in a way that does not distort it.

4x + 3y = 26 3x - 2y=11

Answers

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

2 (4x + 3y = 26)

3 (3x - 2y = 11)              

8x + 6y = 52

9x - 6y = 33                  [the 6y and -6y cancel out]

17x = 85                        [divide both sides by 17 to find x]

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey, there!!

Given,

4x + 3y = 26........(i)

3x -2y = 11............(ii)

Multiplying equation (i) by 2 and equation (ii) by 3 we get,

8x - 6y = 52

9x + 6y = 33

17x = 85 { cancelling 6y and -6y}.

[tex]x = \frac{85}{17} [/tex]

Therefore, x= 5.

Now, putting the value of x is equation (i)

4x + 3y = 26

4×5 + 3y = 26

20 + 3y = 26

3y = 26 -20

[tex]y = \frac{6}{3} [/tex]

Therefore, y = 2.

The ideal gas equation says that the product of the pressure, P, and the volume of a gas, V, is equal to the number of miles of the gas,n, times the gas constant, R, times the temperature of gas,T.

PV=nRT

which of the following equations is equivalent to the ideal gas equation?

Algebra 1

Answers

Answer:

T=PV/nR

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the division property of equality to solve the ideal gas equation for T. Divide both sides of the equation by nR, then simplify.

PV=nPT

PV/RT=nRT/nR

PV/nR=T  

Therefore, the equation below is equivalent to the ideal gas equation.

T= PV/nR

Answers

Complete question :

Vanessa and Zack are playing a game where the player with the lower score wins. At the end of the game, Vanessa has a score of -3 5/8 and Zack has a score of -3 2/3. Which statement explains who won?

Vanessa won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.625 < -3.666.

Vanessa won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.666 < -3.625.

Zack won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.625 < -3.666.

Zack won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.666 < -3.625

Answer: Zack won. If you compare the decimal equivalents of their scores, -3.666 < -3.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Player with the lowest score wins ;

Vanessa's score = - 3 5/8

Zack's score = - 3 2/3

Converting to decimal:

Vanessa :

-3 5/8 = - 29 /8 = - 3.625

Zack:

-3 2/3 = - 11/3 = - 3.666

Comparing the scores :

From the negaryce side of a number line :

-3.666 comes before - 3.625, hence, - 3.666 is lower or lesser than - 3.625

-3.666 < - 3.625, hence Zack won

Answer:

D. Comparing the decimal equivalents of their scores shows that Zack won because -3.6 (line over 6) if less than -3.625.

Effects of Shifting, Adding and Removing Data

Pamela works at the zoo. She was looking at some data showing the weight of their 4 giraffes. The mean of weight of the giraffes was 1,800 pounds and the median weight was 2,000 pounds. Then gets a baby giraffe that weighs 500 pounds. How would the addition of the baby giraffe affect the mean and median?

Chose one:
• Both the mean and median increased.
• Both the mean and median decreased.
• The mean increased, but the median decreased.
• The median increased, but the mean decreased.

Answers

Answer: Both the mean and median decreased.

Step-by-step explanation:

The addition of the 500 lb baby elephant will have a huge impact on the mean, since you'll be finding the average (adding all numbers then dividing). So the only logical answer would be the chosen. The median will most likely either decrease or stay the same, but since staying the same isn't an option for the median, it's most likely going to be decrease.

Kens prediction temperature for April 7C. His prediction for May is 2C higher than April. He use the number line to solve the problem, starting at zero, moving right to seven, and then moving to units to the left. Explain Ken's error

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Ken's prediction temperature for April 7C.

His prediction for May is 2C higher than April.

He attempts to use the number line to solve the problem.

On a number line, we have the origin at a given point zero, the positive x-axis to the right side, and the negative x-axis to the left side.

So, if Ken's starts from zero and move right to seven and the move units to the left, the error he made was moving 2 units to the left because he supposed to have continued in the right direction by moving 2 units forward. This is because moving to the left side will showing a decrease in the temperature by -2° C and he intends to have 2° C.

Find the second term “t2” of the recursive function described below tn= tn-1-tn-2 t8=20 t6 =13

Answers

Answer:

The second term is, t₂ = 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

The recursive function described is as follows:

[tex]t_{n}= t_{n-1}-t_{n-2}[/tex]

Given:

[tex]t_{8}=20\\\\t_{6}=13[/tex]

Compute the 7th term as follows:

[tex]t_{8}= t_{7}-t_{6}\\\\t_{7}=t_{8}+t_{6}\\\\t_{7}=20+13\\\\t_{7}=33[/tex]

Compute the 5th term as follows:

[tex]t_{7}= t_{6}-t_{5}\\\\t_{5}=t_{6}-t_{7}\\\\t_{5}=13-33\\\\t_{5}=-20[/tex]

Compute the 4th term as follows:

[tex]t_{6}= t_{5}-t_{4}\\\\t_{4}=t_{5}-t_{6}\\\\t_{4}=-20-13\\\\t_{4}=-33[/tex]

Compute the 3rd term as follows:

[tex]t_{5}= t_{4}-t_{3}\\\\t_{3}=t_{4}-t_{5}\\\\t_{3}=-33+20\\\\t_{3}=-13[/tex]

Compute the 2nd term as follows:

[tex]t_{4}= t_{3}-t_{2}\\\\t_{2}=t_{3}-t_{4}\\\\t_{2}=-13+33\\\\t_{2}=20[/tex]

Thus, the second term is, t₂ = 20.
