Answer:
50 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
UPS: 8 + .20p
FedEx: 3 + .30p
8 + .20p = 3 + .30p
8 = 3 + .10p
5 = .10p
p = 50
8
|| Hope this is what your looking for ^.^
Sure I will give two examples
Application of tangents
1. If we are traveling in a car around a corner and we drive over something slippery on the round ( like water , ice or oil ) , our car starts to skid
It continue in a direction tangent to the curve
Application of tangents
2. Have you ever sat on a merry- go around
If yes , then you would understand
From your experience when I tell you that the force your experience is towards the centre of merry- go around but your velocity ( the tendency of motion) is in the way toward which your body pointing
Another way saying the same thing would be to let you know that your velocity at any point is tangent while force .
At any point is normal to the circle along which you are moving
Can you draw connection between both the ways of saying the same thing?
Have this two example help you
Good luck :D
PART 1.
Going westward:
Distance: 2400 miles
Rate (this is speed): (450-wind_speed) mph
Time: distance / speed = 2400 / (450-wind speed)
Going eastward:
Distance: 2400 miles
Rate (this is speed): (450+wind_speed) mph
Time: distance / speed = 2400 / (450+wind speed)
PART 2
Formula for speed:
speed = distance / time
Now we solve this for time:
time = distance / speed
11h = 2400 / (450+-wind_speed)
+- sign is put because in one case wind increases speed of plane and in other case it decreases speed.
PART 3
To solve for wind_speed we start by rearranging formula so that we have wind_speed on left side:
(450+-wind_speed) = 2400 / 11
(450+-wind_speed) = 218mph
To fly this distance in 11h speed of plane must be 218mph.
The only way to get this solution is if we substract wind speed:
450-wind_speed = 218
wind_speed = 450-218 = 232mph
