On a particular day, the wind added 4 miles per hour to Alfonso's rate when he was cycling with the wind and subtracted 4 miles

per hour from his rate on his return trip. Alfonso found that in the same amount of time he could cycle 66 miles with the wind, he could go only 42 miles against the wind.What is his normal bicycling speed with no wind?

(v+4)t=66

t=66/(v+4)

...

(v-4)t=42, using t found above in this equation gives you:

66(v-4)/(v+4)=42  perform indicated multiplication on the left side

(66v-264)/(v+4)=42  multiply both sides by (v+4)

66v-264=42v+168  add 264 to both sides

66v=42v+432  subtract 42v from both sides

24v=432  divide both sides by 24

v=18

So his normal bicycling speed with no wind is 18 mph.

Enter the equation of the circle described below. <br> Center (-1,4), radius = sqrt3
slava [35]
The equation of a circle always follows this:

(x - x1) + (y - y1) = r^2

x1 and y1 represent the coordinates as POSITIVE numbers and the r represent the radius

Your answer is (x + 1) + (y - 4) = 3

Two trains leave the station at the same time, one heading east and the other west. The eastbound train travels 16 miles per hou
Verizon [17]
We'll use variables to represent the speeds of the eastbound and westbound trains.

x will represent the speed of the eastbound train.
y will represent the speed of the westbound train.

The eastbound train is 16 mph faster than the westbound train. An equation can be made from this:

x  - y = 16

Subtraction is used, because it represents the difference in distances between the two trains if they travel the same direction.

After 4 hours, the trains are 800 miles apart. An equation can be made from this:

4x + 4y = 800

Addition is used, because the trains are heading in opposite directions, which means their distances from the starting point are added together.

Set the two equations up vertically:

x - y = 16
4x + 4y = 800

We will use elimination to solve for x.

Multiply the entire first equation by 4 so that the coefficients for y will be opposite numbers:

(x - y = 16) \times 4 = 4x - 4y = 64

4x - 4y = 64
4x + 4y = 800

Combine the two equations together to cancel out y:

8x = 864

Divide both sides by 8 to get x by itself:

x = 108

The speed of the eastbound train is 108 mph.
