Based on the time taken by the jet when flying with the wind versus against it, the rate of the jet and jet streams are:

  • In still air = 1,170 mph
  • Rate of wind = 170 mph

<h3>What is the speed of the jet?</h3>

The speed of the jet flying against the wind is:

= 3,000 / 3

= 1,000 mph

The speed with the jet stream is:

= 5,360 / 4

= 1,340 mph

Assuming the speed of the jet is x and the rate of wind is y, the formulas are:

x - y = 1,000

x + y = 1,340

Solving gives:

2x = 2,340

x = 1,170 mph

The rate of jet stream is:

x - y = 1,000

1,170 - y = 1,000

y = 170 mph

One pump can empty a pool in 4 days, whereas a second pump can empty the pool in 10 days. How long will it take the two pumps, w
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

20/7 days (just less than 3 days)

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that (1 job) = (rate)(time), so time = (1 job) / (rate).

Set up and solve the following equation:

  1 job

------------------------------- = time required for 2 pumps working together

1 job         1 job

---------- + -------------

4 days      10 days

This comes out to:

              1 job

------------------------------------------- = time required

10 job-days      4 job-days

------------------ + -----------------

   40 days           40 days

or:

    1 job

-------------------- = (40/14) days, or 20/7 days (just less than 3 days)

14 job·days

-----------------

   40 days

15 more than three times a number is equal to 75<br> Also please do a step by step
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3n+15=75

three times a number is 3n. +15 is 15 more.

3n+15=75  subtract 15 from both sides to get the 3n alone

3n=60 divide by 3 to get the n by itself

n=20
