The air force plane travelled for a total of 6.9 hours.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given, An Air Force plane left Nairobi and flew west at an average speed of 159 mph.  A cargo plane left sometime later flying in the same direction at an average speed of 207 mph.  After flying for 5.3 hours the cargo plane caught up with the Air Force plane.  

We have to find the number of hours the Air Force plane flew before the cargo plane caught up.

Now, we know that, \text { distance travelled }=\text { speed } \times \text { time }

For air force plane \rightarrow \text { distance travelled }=159 \mathrm{x} \text { time taken by air force plane }

\text { For cargo plane } \rightarrow \text { distance travelled }=207 \times 5.3 \text { hours }

Now, when cargo plane caught the air force plane the distance travelled by the planes will be equal.

So, 159 \times \text { time taken by air force plane }=207 \times 5.3

\Rightarrow =\frac{207 \times 5.3}{159}

\Rightarrow =\frac{1097.1}{159}

Time taken by air force plane = 6.9  hrs

What are the values of rand s?<br><br>​
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

s=15

r=10

Step-by-step explanation:

What we know)

The measure of a line is 180º

If two parrel lines are cut by a transversal, the corresponding angles are congruent (corresponding angles postulate)

What we can figure out)

The angle measuring 3r+3s and 6r+3s are on the same line, so

3r+3s+6r+3s=180

3r+3s and 6r+s are corresponding, so

3r+3s=6r+s

Solve)

Now, we just need to solve the equations.

3r+3s+6r+3s=180 can be condensed into 9r+6s=180 by combining like terms. Then, you can divide by 3 to get 3r+2s=60

3r+3s=6r+s can be turned into 2s=3r by subtracting 3r and s.

So we have 3r+2s=60 and 2s=3r

We can substitute 2s for 3r

2s+2s=60

4s=60

s=15

Then, we can plug s=15 into the equation

2(15)=3r

30=3r

r=10
