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.

A circle has a sector with area 27 and central angle of 120

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

81π

Step-by-step explanation:

-The sum of central angles in a circle add up to 360°.

-Let x be the area of the circle.

-Given the area of a 120° is 27π, the circles area can be calculated as:

$A=27\pi\\\\120\textdegree=27\pi\\360\textdegree=x\\\\\therefore x=\frac{360\textdegree\times 27\pi}{120\textdegree}\\\\=3\times 27\pi\\\\=81\pi$

Hence, the area of the circle is 81π

Find the midpoint of the segment with the following end points (10,5) and (6,9)

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The mid-point between the endpoints (10,5) and (6,9) is:

$\left(x,\:y\right)=\left(8,\:7\right)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (x, y) be the mid-point

Given the points

(10,5)

(6,9)

Using the formula to find the mid-point between the endpoints (10,5) and (6,9)

$\left(x,\:y\right)=\left(\frac{x_2+x_1}{2},\:\:\frac{y_2+y_1}{2}\right)$

Here:

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(10,\:5\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(6,\:9\right)$

Thus,

$\left(x,\:y\right)=\left(\frac{x_2+x_1}{2},\:\:\frac{y_2+y_1}{2}\right)$

$\left(x,\:y\right)=\left(\frac{6+10}{2},\:\frac{9+5}{2}\right)$

$\left(x,\:y\right)=\left(8,\:7\right)$

Therefore, the mid-point between the endpoints (10,5) and (6,9) is:

$\left(x,\:y\right)=\left(8,\:7\right)$
