The  airplane flies at 260 mi/h with no wind, while the rate of the wind is 60 mi/h.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let a represent the rate of the airplane with no wind. and b the rate of the wind, hence:

(a - b)3.2 = 640

a - b = 200   (1)

Also:

(a + b)2 = 640

a + b = 320    (2)

The solution to equation 1 and 2 is:

a = 260, b = 60

The  airplane flies at 260 mi/h with no wind, while the rate of the wind is 60 mi/h.

Giles is searching for a sock and discovers that he has 10 socks for every 5 pairs of shoes. If he has 20 socks, how many pairs
Norma-Jean [14]
The answer is 10 pairs of shoes.
The first ratio is 10:5. 10 socks per 5 pairs of shoes. You have 20 socks now instead of 10. You just double the ratio. 20 socks per 10 pairs of shoes. 20:10.

What angle is this and explain
REY [17]

The measures of the angles are 59 degrees

<h3>How to determine the value of the angles?</h3>

The angles are given as:

Angle 1 = 2x + 17

Angle 2 = 3x - 4

By the interior angle theorem, the angles are congruent

So, we have

Angle 1 = Angle 2

Substitute the known values in the above equation

2x + 17= 3x - 4

Collect the like terms

3x - 2x = 17 + 4

Evaluate the like terms

x = 21

Substitute x = 21 in Angle 1 = 2x + 17

Angle 1 = 2 * 21 + 17

Evaluate

Angle 1 = 59

This means that

Angle 1 = Angle 2 = 59

Hence, the measures of the angles are 59 degrees

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m = slope

c = y intercept

y = 1/6x - 3

Comparing with the above formula

m = 1/6

Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same

So the equation of the line using point (-4,2) is

y - 2 = 1/6( x + 4)

y - 2 = 1/6x + 2/3

y = 1/6x + 2/3 + 2

y = 1/6x + 8/3

Hope this helps
