I believe it is an acute angle
Answer:
The speed of the jet is 347 mph and the speed of the wind is 18 mph.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the following:
x = the speed of the jet in still air.
y = the speed of the wind
we know that the speed is equal to:
v = d / t
therefore the distance would be:
d = v * t
if we replace with the information of the exercise we have:
3 * (x + y) = 1095
3 * (x - y) = 987
we must solve this system of equations, add both equations and we are left:
3 * x + 3 * y = 1095
3 * x - 3 * y = 987
3 * x + 3 * y + 3 * x - 3 * y = 1095 + 987
6 * x = 2082
x = 2082/6 = 347
now to calculate y, we replace:
3 * (347 + y) = 1095
1041 + 3 * y = 1095
3 * y = 1095 - 1041
y = 54/3 = 18
The speed of the jet is 347 mph and the speed of the wind is 18 mph.
Okay so the y is in absolute value, which means the number could be a negative and the absolute value would make is a positive.
since the sign is greater than, with no equal to underneath it, than the answer cant be 3 or -3.
the number has to total to be larger than 3. again, since the absolute value turns the negatives into positives, then -4 is an acceptable answer. so the absolute value line should look like the above (please excuse the terrible look). I simplified it to the two numbers that start the equation. the two circle are open circles because the sign does not include an equal sign under it. you draw the arrows on either side of the two numbers because any answer beyond those arrows fits in with the equation
