Answer:
Velocity of jet in still air is 970 miles per hour and velocity of wind is 210 miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jet's velocity against wind is
3040/4 = 760 miles per hour and flying with wind it is
8260/7 = 1180 miles per hour.
Let the velocity of jet in still air be x miles per hour and velocity of wind be y miles per hour.
As such its velocity against wind is x − y and with wind is x + y and therefore
x − y = 760 and x + y = 1180
Adding the two 2 x = 1940 and x = 970 and y = 1180 − 970 = 210
Hence velocity of jet in still air is 970 miles per hour and velocity of wind is
210 miles per hour.

Common ratio = 8/2 = 32/8 = 4
10th term = a1*r^(n - 1) where a1 = 2 , r = 4 and n = 10
= 2 * 4^9
= 524,288
Here is the solution to the given problem above.
Given the the amount of water in a pool is decreasing 5/8 gallon every hour.
And what would be the change in the number of gallons after 3/4 hour. So what we are going to do is just to multiply 5/8 by 3/4. And the result would be 15/32. The total change in the number of gallons of water in the pool after 3/4 hour would be 15/32 gallons.
A^2+ b^2= c^2
24^2+b^2=25^2
576+b^2=625
Sub 576
b^2= 49 b=7
as the horizontal beam are parallel to each other x and 40 are alternate angles and alternate angles are equal. So <u>x=40</u>
