Flying against the wind, a jet travels 2480 miles in 4 hours. Flying with the wind, the same jet travels 7040 miles in 8 hours. What is the rate of the jet in still air and what is the rate of the wind?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The speed of jet in still air is 750 miles per hour and speed of wind is 130 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Distance traveled by jet against the wind = 2480 miles in 4 hours

Combined speed = [tex]\frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2480}{4}[/tex]

Combined speed = 620 miles per hour

Distance traveled with wind = 7040 miles in 8 hours

Combined speed = [tex]\frac{7040}{8}[/tex]

Combined speed = 880

Let,

Speed of jet = x

Speed of wind = y

When jet travels against the wind, the speed will be subtracted

x-y=620      Eqn 1

When jet travels with the wind, the speed will be added

x+y=880     Eqn 2

Adding Eqn 1 and 2

(x-y)+(x+y)=620+880

x-y+x+y=1500

2x=1500

Dividing both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{1500}{2}\\x=750[/tex]

Putting x=750 in Eqn 2

750+y=880

y=880-750

y=130

Hence,

The speed of jet in still air is 750 miles per hour and speed of wind is 130 miles per hour.

A) The y-intercept for f(x) is greater than the y-intercept for g(x).
B) The y-intercept for both functions is (0,0).
C) The y-intercept for g(x) is greater than the y-intercept for f(x)
D) The y-intercept for both functions is (0, 2).​

Answers

Answer:

Should be C

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept for f(x) is greater than the y-intercept for g(x). Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

What is a y-intercept?

In Maths, an intercept is a point on the y-axis, through which the slope of the line passes. It is the y-coordinate of a point where a straight line or a curve intersects the y-axis. This is represented when we write the equation for a line, y = mx+c, where m is slope and c is the y-intercept.

From the table, we have the coordinates (-2, 0) and (-1, 1).

Here, slope (m)=(1-0)/(-1+2)

m=1

Substitute m=1 and (x, y)=(-2, 0) in y=mx+c, we get

0=1(-2)+c

c=2

From the graph y-intercept is c=1

Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

Eliza claims that the two squares are congruent. Which statement could be used to prove Eliza's claim?

A) Any two squares are congruent since all squares have angles of 90 degrees

B) The two squares are congruent since a translation carries one square onto the other.

C) Any two squares are congruent since all four sides of any square are congruent.

D) The two squares are congruent since a rotation about the origin carries one square onto the other.

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

I Hope this helps you out!

Eliza claims that the two squares are congruent. The statement that could be used to prove Eliza's claim can be found in Option A.

Any two squares are congruent since all squares have angles of 90 degrees.

A figure is said to be congruent if they have similar angles and the position of each shape corresponds to each other.

From the given figure attached to the question, we can see that the two shapes in the figure are squares, and they are located at 2 units each from the origin. The angles of each shape are 90° to the horizontal line and they are perpendicular to each other.

 

The two squares may not be congruent since not only translation carries one square onto the other, from the figure in the question, it may be a reflection and not only translation.

Also, only the sides of a shape cannot be used as a determining factor to determine if a shape is congruent or not.

Therefore, we can conclude that any two squares are congruent since all squares have angles of 90 degrees.

Answer:

  (x, y, z) = (2, 1, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are numerous equation solvers available on the web. The attached result is from one of them.

__

You may find it easier to solve these by hand if you eliminate fractions.

2x -y +z = -2x +3y -z = 10x +0y +2z = -8

The first step is to look to see what you have, then formulate a strategy for getting a solution. Because the equations containing y have opposite coefficients, one of which is -1, we choose to use those to eliminate y. Immediately, we will have two equations in x and z.

If  you multiply the first equation by 3 and add that to the second, then you will eliminate y. The third equation already has y eliminated, so you will then have two equations in x and z.

  3(2x -y +z) +(x +3y -z) = 3(-2) +(10)

  6x -3y +3z +x +3y -z = -6 +10

  7x +2z = 4 . . . . [eq4]

Subtracting the third equation from this eliminates z, so you have ...

  (7x +2z) -(x +2z) = (4) -(-8)

  6x = 12

  x = 2

Substituting into the third equation gives ...

  2 +2z = -8

  2z = -10

  z = -5

Then using the first equation, you have ...

  y = 2x +z +2 = 2(2) +(-5) +2 = 1

(x, y, z) = (2, 1, -5)
