Work shown above! y = 148
Answer: the rate of the jet in still air is 685 mph and the rate of the jetstream is 75 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the rate of the jet in still air.
Let y represent the rate of the jet jetstream.
Distance = speed × time
Flying against the jetstream, a jet travels 3050 miles in 5 hours. This means that the total speed of the jet would be (x - y) mph. Therefore,
3050 = 5(x - y)
3050/5 = x - y
x - y = 610 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -1
Flying with the jetstream, the same jet travels 3800 miles in 4 hours. This means that the total speed of the jet would be (x + y) mph. Therefore,
3800 = 4(x + y)
3800/5 = x + y
x + y = 760 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Adding equation 1 to equation 2, it becomes
2x = 1370
x = 1370/2 = 685mph
Substituting x = 685 into equation 1, it becomes
685 - y = 610
y = 685 - 610 = 75mph
1.1, 0.10299, 0.1038, 0.9 im pretty sure
Answer:
(3x+1)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Using slope-intercept form, y = mx + b where m = slope and b = y-intercept:
We know our slope is -6. This can be interpreted as -6/1, which rise-over-run-wise, means that when y changes by 6, x changes inversely by 1.
To find that y-intercept, though, we need to find the value of y when x = 0.
Use our point (-9, -3) to find this...
We want to add 9 to x so that it becomes 0.
According to our slope, this means subtracting 54 from y.
Our y-intercept is at (0, -57), with -57 being the value of b we put in our equation.

You could also just use point-slope form:
y - y¹ = m(x - x¹)
y - (-3) = -6(x - (-9))
y + 3 = -6(x + 9)
And convert to slope-intercept if you want:
y + 3 = -6x - 54
y = -6x - 57
