The jet stream is traveling nearly due south from Wyoming to Colorado at 110 knots. If the plane’s speed is 400 knots, what will

be its ground speed if it travels from Wyoming to Colorado?

Considering the direction of the wind, it is found that the ground speed needs to be of 510 knots.

<h3>What is the ground speed?</h3>

The ground speed, considering that the wind is flowing from Wyoming to Colorado, and the same direction as the trip, is given by:

G = Plane speed + Wind speed.

In this problem, we have that the speeds are given as follows:

  • Plane: 400 knots.
  • Wind: 110 knots.

Hence the ground speed is given by:

G = 400 + 110 = 510 knots.

A similar problem, involving plane and wind's speed, is given at brainly.com/question/25547425

(a) The explicit rule to model the sequence formed by the number of seats in each row is a_{n}=15+3n

(b) The 35th row has 120 seats

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is

a_{n}=a+(n-1)d , where

  • a is the the first term
  • d is the common difference between each two consecutive terms

∵ There are 18 seats in the 1st row

∵ There are 21 seats in the 2nd row

∵ 21 - 18 = 3

∵ The number of seats is increased by 3 with each additional row

- The number of seats in each row represents an arithmetic

   sequence because there is a common difference between

   each two consecutive rows

∴ The number of seats in each row formed an arithmetic sequence

∵ The number of seats in the first row = 18 seats

∴ a = 18

∵ The number of seats in a row continues to increase by 3 with each

   additional row

∴ d = 3

- Substitute the values of a and d in the rule of nth term

∴ a_{n}=18+(n-1)3

- Simplify the right hand side

∴ a_{n}=18+3n-3

- Add like terms

∴ a_{n}=15+3n

(a) The explicit rule to model the sequence formed by the number of seats in each row is a_{n}=15+3n

∵ There are 120 seat in a row

- Substitute a_{n} by 120 in the rule above

∴ 120 = 15 + 3n

- Subtract 15 from both sides

∴ 105 = 3n

- Divide both sides by 3

∴ n = 35

∴ The number of the row is 35

(b) The 35th row has 120 seats

Find the roots for the above given quadratic equation.<br><br> Please show the working too.
Mars2501 [29]

Step-by-step explanation:

9x^{2} - 9 (a + b)x + 2a^{2} + 5ab + 2b^{2} = 0\\9x^{2} - 3[(3a + 3b)]x + 2a^{2} + 4ab +ab + 2b^{2} = 0\\9x^{2} - 3[(a + 2b) + (2a + b)]x + 2a[a + 2b] + b [a + 2b] = 0\\9x^{2} - 3(a + 2b)x - 3 (2a + b)  + (a + 2b)(2a + b) = 0\\3x [3x - (a + 2b)] -(2a + b)[3x - (a + 2b)]=0\\\:\: [3x - (a + 2b)] - [3x - (2a + b)] = 0\\\\\\\\\circ\:3x - (2a + b) = 0\\\boxed{\underline{x = \frac{2a + b}{3} }}\\\\\\\\\circ\:3x - (2a + b) = 0\\\boxed{\underline{x = \frac{a + 2b}{3} }}

So, the roots are:

<u>1) x = 2a + b/3</u>

<u>2) x = a + 2b/3</u>

brilliants [131]

Answer:

Length SD is greater than length DM.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the measure of the opposite angle and a side are related, so by determining which angle is bigger, we can discover which side is longer.

Angle SUD is greater than angle MUD. Angle SUD is the opposite angle to SD, and angle MUD is the opposite angle to DM. Therefore, SD is greater than DM.

"<span>A company will need 40,000 in 6 years for a new addition. To meet the goal, the company deposits money into an account today that pays 4% annual intrest compund quarterly."  Let's pretend that the instructions state, "Determine the amount of money that must be deposited upfront so that you will have $40,000 in 6 years."

Use the Compound Amount formula:  A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt),
where P is the principal (the amount deposited upfront), r is the interest rate as a decimal fraction, n is the number of compounding periods, and t is the time in years.

Here, $40000 = P(1 + 0.04/4)^(4*6)
                                                               $40000
So the upfront $ needed is      P =   -------------------------
                                                           (1+0.01)^24

This comes out to $31502.65 (answer)</span>
