A government buys `x`fighter planes at `z` dollars each, and `y` tons of wheat at w dollars each. It spends a total of `B`dollar

s, where `B=xz+yw`. Write an equation whose solution is the given quantity:
2. The price of a ton of wheat, given that a fighter plane costs 100,000 times as much as a ton of wheat, and that the government bought 20 fighter planes and 15,000 tons of wheat for a total cost of $90 million.

The equation whose solution is the given quantity is 90,000,000 = 2,000,000w + 15,000w where w = $44.67

<h3>Equation</h3>

B = xz + yw

Where,

  • B = Total cost = 90
  • x = number of fighter plane = 20
  • y = tons of wheat = 15,000
  • w = cost of each tons of wheat
  • z = cost of fighter plane
  • z = 100,000w

B = xz + yw

90,000,000 = (20 × 100,000w) + (15,000 × w)

90,000,000 = 2,000,000w + 15,000w

90,000,000 = 2,015,000w

w = 90,000,000 / 2,015,000

= 44.6650124069478

Approximately,

w = $44.67

Consider an airplane heading due east at 150 miles/hour relative to the air. The wind is blowing at 7.1 miles/hour at 45º south
sergij07 [2.7K]

We have

<span>Va(airplane)=150  East</span>

Vw(wind)=7.1 South East

<span>
</span><span>resulting vector R</span>

airplane

Vax=150    Vay=0   it only has component x 


Wind
Vwx=7.1*cos45=5.02

Vwy=7.1*sin45=-5.02 is negative because is South direction

 |R|=(Rx^2+Ry^2) ^0.5

Rx=150+5.02=155.02

Ry=0-5.02=-5.02

<span>|R|=155.10 miles/hour South East</span>

Determine angle θ

Rx=R*cos(θ)

<span>Cos(θ)=Rx/R</span> <span>Cos(θ)=155.02/155.10=0.9995</span>

 θ =arc cos Rx/R θ =1.8119 º

 Rx represents the component in the East direction of the resultant force. Your contribution is given by both, the force of the plane and the wind. The contribution of the wind makes the airplane's speed greater

 Ry represents the component in the South direction of the resulting force Its contribution is exclusive of the wind since the airplane has no component in this direction

 |R| the force resulting from the combined action of the force of the plane and the force of the wind

 θ represents the angle that forms the resultant force with respect to the x axis or east direction
