Answer:

The rate of the plane is 862 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

An airplane travels 6903 kilometers against the wind in 9 hours.

Speed = distance / time

Speed of the airplane while travelling against the wind is

6903/9 = 767 miles per hour

The airplane travelled 8613 kilometers with the wind in the same amount of time. This means that the speed while travelling with the wind will be

8613/9 = 957 miles per hour

Let x = speed of the airplane

Let y = speed of the wind

While travelling against the wind,

x - y = 767 - - - - - -- 1

While travelling with the wind,

x + y = 957 - - - - - - -2

Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1,

-y - y = 767 - 957

-2y = -190

y = -190/-2

y = 95 miles per hour

x = 957 - y

x = 957 - 95

x = 862 miles per hour

I don’t really understand how you figure out the points of a figure on rotation, please explain!
Basile [38]
To rotate a figure
90 degrees(-y,x)
180 degrees(-x,-y)
270 degrees(y,-x)
If your original point is (1,2) or example and you want to rotate it say 270 degrees the final point would be (2,-1)
Hope this helped!!!!!

zvonat [6]

Simplify the following:

sqrt(378904)

sqrt(378904) = sqrt(8×47363) = sqrt(2^3×47363):

sqrt(2^3 47363)

sqrt(2^3 47363) = sqrt(2^3) sqrt(47363) = 2 sqrt(2) sqrt(47363):

2 sqrt(2) sqrt(47363)

sqrt(2) sqrt(47363) = sqrt(2×47363):

2 sqrt(2×47363)

2×47363 = 94726:

Answer:  2 sqrt(94726)
