flying against the wind, an airplane travels 5220 kilometers in 9 hours. flying with the wind, the same plane travels 6560 kilometers in 8 hours. what is the rate of the plane in still air and what is the rate of the wind?

Answers

Answer 1

a.

The rate of the plane in still air is 700 km/h

Let V = rate of plane in still air and v = rate of wind.

When flying against the wind, an airplane travels 5220 kilometers in 9 hours, we have that since distance = speed × time

(V - v) × 9 = 5220

V - v = 5220/9

V - v = 580  (1)

Also, flying with the wind, the same plane travels 6560 kilometers in 8 hours, we have that since distance = speed × time

(V + v) × 8 = 6560

V + v = 6560/8

V + v = 820 (2)

Adding equations (1) and (2), we have

V - v = 580  (1)

+

V + v = 820 (2)

2V = 1400

V = 1400/2

V = 700 km/h

So, the rate of the plane in still air is 700 km/h.

b.

The rate of the wind is 120 km/h

Substituting V into (1), we have

V - v = 580  (1)

700 - v = 580  

v = 700 - 580

v = 120 km/h

So, the rate of the wind is 120 km/h

А There are 84 boys and 72 girls in the sixth grade. Jerod says that the ratio of girls to boys is 6:7. Is he correct? Why or why not? 23 Maneuvering the Middle LLC. 2015​

Answers

Answer:

He is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

72 girls and 84 boys

Divide both numbers by 12

6 : 7

He is correct

Jerod says that the ratio of girls to boys is 6:7 is correct.

What is Ratio?

A ratio is an ordered pair of numbers a and b, written a / b where b does not equal 0.

Given that in the sixth grade there are 84 boys and 72 girls

Jerod says that the ratio of girls to boys is 6:7

We need to check whether Jerod statement is correct or incorrect

Now the number of boys=84

The number of girls=72

Now divide the number of girls by number of boys

72/84

6/7

So Jerod statement is true

Hence, Jerod says that the ratio of girls to boys is 6:7 is correct.

Which of the following equations describes the graph shown above

Answers

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

this is in y=Mx+ b form. M stands for the slope and b stands for the y intercept, or where the line intersects with the y-axis.

Going left to right, the line slopes downwards, therefore it is a negative Slope. This narrows down your answer to either a or d. the slope is -1 because you can only ever write x by itself if it means 1x. In this case it is negative so it would look like this: -x

for the y-intercept, simply look at where the line passes through the y-axis. In this case, it is positive 2.

your finished equation would be: y=-x+2

How to write a linear equation?

A linear equation for the given case can be written by assuming any variable as the unknown quantity. Then, as per the given data the required operations are done and it is equated to some value.

(a) As per the question, the numbers can be considered as 2x and 3x respectively.

Then, the equation for their sum can be written as follows,

3x + 2x = 55

⇒ 5x = 55

⇒ x = 11

The numbers are obtained as 2 × 11 = 22 and 3 × 11 = 33.

(b) Similarly, the equation for the product of numbers can be written as,

3x × 2x = 384

⇒ 6x² = 384

⇒ x² = 64

⇒ x = 8

The numbers are obtained as 2× 8 = 16 and 3 × 8 = 24.

The scatter plot shows the number of minutes people had to wait for service at a restaurant and the number of staff available at he time. A line that models the data is given by the equation y=-1.62x + 18 where y represents the wait time and x represents the number of staff available. Use the equation to make a conjecture about the wait if there are 10 staff members available


A the wait time will be about 18 minutes

B the wait time will be about 5 minutes

C the wait time will be about - 2 minutes

D the wait time will be about 2 minutes

Answers

Answer:

D. The wait time will be about 2 mins.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to substitute the x into the equation as we know it is 10.

So, y = (-1.62 × 10) + 18.

Thus, y = -16.2 + 18.

Then, y would equal 1.8.

Therefore you would round to the nearest minute which would be 2.

5/2

1 = x2

3 = y2

(7,-12)

7= x1

-12 = x1

In order:

3+12 / 1-7

=15/6

which is simplified to 5/2

so when trying to find the slope of two points you want to use a certent formula which is y2 minus y1 over x2 minus x1 and if the x1 or y1 is negative it will be plus.

first you need to label them and then put them in the order you labeled them to the formula. After subtract or add and if you can simplify it then simplified it to get your answer.

this is the best way I can explain it, sorry
