Answer: the rate of the jet in still air is 685 mph and the rate of the jetstream is 75 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the rate of the jet in still air.
Let y represent the rate of the jet jetstream.
Distance = speed × time
Flying against the jetstream, a jet travels 3050 miles in 5 hours. This means that the total speed of the jet would be (x - y) mph. Therefore,
3050 = 5(x - y)
3050/5 = x - y
x - y = 610 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -1
Flying with the jetstream, the same jet travels 3800 miles in 4 hours. This means that the total speed of the jet would be (x + y) mph. Therefore,
3800 = 4(x + y)
3800/5 = x + y
x + y = 760 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Adding equation 1 to equation 2, it becomes
2x = 1370
x = 1370/2 = 685mph
Substituting x = 685 into equation 1, it becomes
685 - y = 610
y = 685 - 610 = 75mph
It is -3 to start off with, on Monday. On Tuesday morning it would be -3 - 2 degrees, = -5 degrees. By Tuesday evening it was 4 degrees lower than in the morning, so -5 - 4 degrees = -9 degrees on Tuesday evening.
Hope this helps xox :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5 + x = 1
Multiply each term by 5
2 + 5x = 5
5x = 5 - 2
5x = 3
x = 3/5

Answer:
45.05 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula: d = v
t + 
a
d = distance v = initial velocity (m/s)
t = time (s) a = acceleration (m/
)
m is meters and s is seconds. They are units of measurement so leave them be.
Assuming the object is simply dropped, the initial velocity is 0 since the object was not moving before it was dropped.
The distance is 725 feet, which is 220.98 meters.
The acceleration is 9.81m/ since that is the acceleration of Earth's gravity, aka free fall.
Time is what we are trying to find so just leave it as the variable t.
So plug the values into the equation:
220.98m = (0)(t) + (9.81m/)(t)
220.98m = (4.905m/)(t)
45.0519877676s = t
t = 45.05s
Remember to pay attention to units because your answer will be wrong otherwise
