Rewrite as (2^1/2 + 2^1/2)*(18^1/2-2^1/2) = 8
Answer:
We can compute this in 2 ways:
305 downwind - 260 still air = 45 mph wind velocity
260 still air - 215 downwind = 45 mph wind velocity
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a proportion, and let x be the amount 16kg would cost: 14/154=16/x. We simplify 14/154 = 1/11. Next, we cross-multiply to get (1)(x)=(16)(11), so x=176. Therefore, 16kg of apples cost $176.
