A passenger plane flew from Texas to Frankfurt and back. The round trip is 9900 km.
return trip took 4 hours less than the trip to Frankfurt because of the 50 km/hr wind over the ocean on the return trip. Assume there was no wind on the trip to Frankfurt. Let x km/hr represent the average speed of the plane in still air.

Answers

Answer 1

We want to find the average speed of the plane in still air, we will get that the average speed of the plane in still air is 355.3 km/hr

So we know that the total trip is 9900km, so from Texas to Frankfurt the distance is half of that:

9900km/2 = 4950km

Now, The speed of the plane in still air is x km/hr

The speed of the air is 50 km/hr, and it flows from Frankfurt to Texas.

So in the first part of the trip, the wind blows in opposite direction to the motion of the plane, thus the speed of the plane will be:

(x - 50) km/hr

While in the return trip the wind blows in favor of the plane, in this case, the speed is:

(x + 50)km/hr

Then if the first part of the trip lasts for T hours (the second for T - 4 hours) we can write the system of equations:

(x - 50)*T = 4950

(x + 50)*(T - 4) = 4950

Where I removed the units so it is easier to read.

If we isolate T in the first equation we get:

T = 4950/(x - 50)

Now we can replace this in the other equation to get:

(x + 50)*(4950/(x - 50)  - 4) = 4950

If we multiply both sides by (x - 50) we get:

(x + 50)*4950 - 4*(x + 50)*(x - 50) = 4950*(x - 50)

Now we can solve this for x:

(x + 50)*4950 - 4*(x^2 - 2500) - 4950*(x - 50) = 0

100*4950 - 4*(x^2 - 2500)  = 0

495000 - 4*x^2 + 10000 = 0

505000 = 4*x^2

√(505000/4) = x = 355.3

The average speed of the plane in still air is 355.3 km/hr

Devon has $900 in a savings account. The interest rate is 7% per year and is not
compounded. How much interest will she earn in 2 years?
Use the formula i = prt, where i is the interest earned, p is the principal (starting amount),
is the interest rate expressed as a decimal, and t is the time in years.
=

Answers

Answer:

$ 12600

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question, you have to find the simple interest that Devon earn after 2 years,

You can use this formula to find that.

I = P r t

Here,

P = principal ( $ 900)

r = rate ( 7%)

t = time ( 2 years)

Let us solve now.

I = p × r × t

 = $ 900 × 7% × 2 years

 = 6300 × 2

 = $ 12600

The population of Fantasy City doubles each month. When will the city be half populated if it will be fully populated in 10 months.

Answers

Using an exponential function, it is found that the city will be half populated in 9 months.

The population of Fantasy City doubles each month, hence, after t months, the population is given by:

[tex]P(t) = P(0)2^{t}[/tex]

In which P(0) is the initial population.

Fully populated in 10 months, hence, the full population is:

[tex]P(10) = P(0)2^{10} = 1024P(0)[/tex]

Hence, half populated is [tex]P(t) = \frac{1024P(0)}{2} = 512P(0)[/tex], hence:

[tex]P(t) = P(0)2^{t}[/tex]

[tex]512P(0) = P(0)2^{t}[/tex]

[tex]2^t = 512[/tex]

[tex]2^t = 2^9[/tex]

[tex]t = 9[/tex]

The city will be half populated in 9 months.

Suppose that there are two types of tickets to a show: advance and same-day. The combined cost of one advance ticket and one same-day ticket is $70. For one performance, 25 advance tickets and 35 same-day tickets were sold. The total amount paid for the tickets was $2050. What was the price of each kind of ticket?

Answers

Answer:

You can use the method of substitution.

Let the advance and same-day tickets be x and y respectively.

x + y = $70 ---> (1)

25x + 35y = $2050 ---> (2)

From Statement (1):

Let (1) × 25

25x + 25y = $1750

10y = $2050 - $1750

      = $300

y = $300 ÷ 10

  = $30 ---> (3)

From Statement (3):

Substitute (3) into (1)

x + $30 = $70

x = $70 - $30

  = $40

Advance ticket: $40

Same-day ticket: $30

Mary has some chocolates. If she shares them equally among 4 friends or 5 friends, there are always 2 extra chocolates left. What is the possible number of chocolates Mary could have?

Answers

Answer:

22 chocolates

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let x represent the number of chocolates Mary has. Since she always has 2 extra chocolates, the number of chocolates distributed to her friends would be x - 2. And x - 2 is the least common multiple of 4 and 5 because x - 2 chocolates are evenly distributed among 4 and 5 friends. The LCM of 4 and 5 is 20, so x - 2 is 20.  Mary has 22 chocolates.

Answers

the correct answer is x= -3

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles shown are corresponding angles, meaning that they have the same value. Because of this, we can create an equation to solve for the value of x.

2x + 9 = 7x + 24

Remember, those two angles are similar, and that's why we can make the two values equal to each other. First, let's remove 7x from both sides.

2x - 7x + 9 = 7x - 7x + 24

-5x + 9 = 24

Then, we'll remove 9 from both sides.

-5x + 9 - 9 = 24 - 9

-5x = 15

Finally, we'll divide both sides by -5 to isolate x and figure out what it is equivalent to.

-5x/-5 = 15/-5

x = -3

And there it is... the value of x. Hopefully that's helpful! :)

Find the value of n




Plz help me fast and send the answer​

Answers

Answer:

n is 113

Step-by-step explanation:

Is an isosceles triangle so the base angles are equal

therefor angles sum up to 180

46 + x + x = 180

46 + 2x = 180

2x = 180 - 46

2x = 134

x = 67

now to find n

the sum of angles on a straight line equals 180

n + x = 180

n + 67 = 180

n = 180 - 67

n= 113

Answer:

the base angle of an isosceles triangle are equal

let the base angle be y°

46° + y° + y° = 180°(sum of angles in a ∆)

46° + 2y° = 180°

2y° = 180° - 46°

2y° = 134°

y° = 134/2

y°=67°

n+y=180°[sum of angles on a straight line]

n+67=180°

n=180-67

n=113°
