X - y = 2400/6 = 400 where x = speed of plane and y = speed of wind.
x + y = 2400/5 = 480 - flying with the wind
adding the 2 equations
2x = 880
x = 440
Speed of the plane with no wind = 440 mph
Answer:
23 11/12 yards or 23.9166 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 of 100 yard race is equivalent to 66 2/3 yards. Tge difference between the above and 42 3/4 yards covered by tortoise will be
66 2/3- 42 3/4= 23 11/12 yards or 23.91666 yards
Hey there!
The main concept of pre-algebra is solving equations for variables in them.
For example, let's say you have the algebraic equation below.
x+1=3
With algebra, you need to figure what x is equal to. To do so, you will use inverse operations on both sides of the equation to isolate x one side, showing what it is equal to.
We would subtract 1 to both sides to isolate x on one side.
x+1-1=3-1
As you can see, +1-1=0, therefore, this would give us x+0, or just x. Now it is isolated and will show us what it is equal to.
x=3-1
x=2
Therefore, in our equation x+1=3, x would be equal to 2.
I hope this explanation helps! Have a great time here at Brainly!
