Answer:

350 feet per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of time it took the plane to descend is 3 hours 14 minutes minus 1 hour 30 minutes.

This means it took 104 minutes for the plane to descend 36,400 feet.

Dividing 36400 by 104, you get 350 which is the average rate of descent in feet per minute.

What is the distance between 4-i and -2+3i?
stepan [7]
If you're working with complex numbers, then I'm sure you're comfortable with plotting them on a complex-plane ... real part of the number along the x-axis, and imaginary part of the number along the y-axis.

When you look at it that way, your two points are simply two points on the x-y plane:

           4 - i    ===>  (4, -1)

         -2 + 3i  ===>  (-2, 3) .

The distance between them is

                       D  =  √ (difference in 'x')² + (difference in 'y')²

                           =  √  (6)² + (4)²

                           =  √ (36 + 16)

                           =   √ (52)

                           =      7.211  (rounded)

Find mFE<br> A) 52°<br> C) 76°<br> B) 93°<br> D) 112°
mixer [17]

Answer:

76 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

GE = 180 since it is a straight line

GE = GR + FE

180 = 7x+6 +6x-8

Combine like terms

180 = 13x-2

Add 2 to each side

182 = 13x

Divide by 13

182/13 = 13x/13

14 =x

We want FE

FE = 6x-8

FE = 6(14) -8

    =84 -8

    =76

Firdavs [7]

the sign would probably be a negative. imagine this - - - - - - and then + + +, cancel out the negatives and plus then you are left with more negatives than positive so the sign will take the negative sign.
