x = 7

y = 8

All I did was assume x was 7 and y was 8. I added 4, 6, 7, 8, and 10 together. I got 35. Then, I divided by five (since that's how many numbers are shown) and I got 7 for the mean. 7 is the median, and the 7 is the mean gotten from 4, 6, 7, 8, and 10. Therefore, x must equal 7 and y must equal 8.

Two planes start from los angeles international airport and fly in opposite directions. the second plane starts 1/2 hour after t
mixer [17]
Let x = first plane's speed.  
We have the equation:
 2 hours * x km/h + 1.5 hours * (x+60) km/h = 3135 km. 
 3.5 hours*x km/h + 90 km = 3135km
 3.5hours*x km/h = 3045km 
 x = 870 km/h. 
 The first plane is traveling at 870 km/h, therefore since it is 60 km/h faster, the second plane is traveling at 930 km/h.
