To solve the problem we will use this equation where,

d will be distance.
x is the speed of the plane without tailwind. 
y is the speed of the wind affecting the plane.
Going to Philadelphia the speed of the plane affected by wind will be x-y=220 miles/hr
Coming back with a tailwind, the speed of the plane will be x+y= 280 miles/hr.
since time = distance / speed, t1 =d/220 and t2 = d/280
and since the total time traveled is 6.5hrs
d/220 + d/ 280 = 6.5hrs
d = 800.8 miles x 2 (back and forth trip) the answer is 1601.6 miles

You roll a six-sided number cube. Which events are mutually exclusive?
maksim [4K]
Events are mutually exclusive only if they cannot both be true.
Only C is alright.

4 is a multiple of two so it can't be right.
Same logic works for B.

And then 2 is prime so then D is out too.

a chef has 5 blocks of butter. Each weights 1 pound. she cuts each block into fourths. how many 1/4 pound pieces of butter does
lianna [129]
The answer would be 20 because you have 5 blocks that are cut into 1/4. It doesn't say anything about any of the pieces disappearing or being used yet so you multiply 4*5 and then you get the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we to write a system of inequalities.

First inequality:  

The product of the earnings per hour working at culvers (8) and the number of hours worked there, plus the product of the earnings per hour mowing lawns (8) and the number of hours mowing must be greater or equal to $100.

Second inequality:

The amount of time he works at culvers (x) plus the amount of time he works mowing lawn (y) must be less or equal to 14 hours.

8 x + 25y ≥100

x+y ≤ 14

Where:

x = number of hours worked at Culvers

y= number of hours worked Mowing lawns
