Plane #1 speed:  x mph
Plane #2 speed:  (x+30) mph

time = time becomes

170 mi        185 mi
---------- = --------------
      x             x+30

Solving for x, the speed of the slower plane, we get

170x + 5100 = 185 x
                                           5100
Then 15x = 5100, and x = ---------- (mi/hr) = 340 mph
                                              15

The slower plane flies at 340 mph, and the faster one at 370 mph.

Find the value of z.
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

  z = 110°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles z and the one marked 70° form an linear pair, hence are supplementary.

  z = 180° -70° = 110°

<h3>Angles where chords cross</h3>

The angle made by two chords is half the sum of the arcs intercepted by those chords. Here, that means ...

  70° = 1/2(60° +x)   ⇒   x = 140° -60° = 80°

The arc w completes the circle of 360°, so we have ...

  w +x +79° +60° = 360°   ⇒   w = 360° -219° = 141°

Finally, z is the average of w and 79°:

  z = (w +79°)/2 = (141° +79°)/2 = 110° . . . as above

Yuri [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3b + 2f = 17

2b + 4f = 18

-6b - 4f = -34

6b  + 12f = 54

8f = 20

f = $2.50 fries

3b + 2(2.5) = 17

3b + 5 = 17

3b = 12

b = $4 burger

The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon is 2880°. How many sides does the polygon have?
harina [27]

Let

S------> The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon

n-------> number of sides of a polygon

we know that

The formula to find the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon is equal to

S=(n-2)*180°

in this problem

S=2880°

Solve for n

S=(n-2)*180\\ \\ n=\frac{S}{180}+2\\ \\ n=\frac{2880}{180}+2\\ \\ n=16+2\\ \\ n=18\ sides

therefore

the answer is

18\ sides
