The 40th parallel of north latitude runs across the United States through Philadelphia, Indianapolis, and Denver. at this latitu

de earths radius is about 3030 miles. The earth rotates with an angular velocity of pi/12 radians per hour toward the east.
If a jet flies due west with the same angular velocity relative to the ground at the equinox the sun as viewed from the jet will stop in the sky. how fast in miles per hour with the jet have to travel west at the 40th parallel for this to happen?

Answer: 793 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following data:

R_{E}=3030 mi is Earth radius at the 40th parallel of north latitude

\omega_{E}=\frac{\pi}{12} rad/h is the Earth's angular velocity (toward the east)

\omega_{J}=\frac{\pi}{12} rad/h is the Jet's angular velocity (toward due west)

And we need to find the Jet's speed V_{J}, which is calculated by:

V_{J}=\omega_{J}R_{E}

V_{J}=(\frac{\pi}{12} rad/h)(3030 mi)

V_{J}=793.25 mi/h

For which of the following inequalities is x≥4 a solution.<br> x+3≥1<br> 3x≥1<br> x-3≥1
pychu [463]

Answer:

x - 3 ≥ 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving each of the inequalities

x + 3 ≥ 1 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

x ≥ - 2

3x ≥ 1 ( divide each inequality by 3 )

x ≥ \frac{1}{3}

x - 3 ≥ 1 ( add 3 to both sides )

x ≥ 4 ← required solution

Examine triangle ABC.<br><br> What is the value of x?<br><br> 37<br> 48<br> 127<br> 138
Flura [38]

The outside angle of B needs to equal 180 - 79 = 101 degrees.

The 3 outside angles of a triangle need to equal 360 degrees.

Set up the equation with what we know:

X + (x+5) + 101 = 360

Simplify:

2x + 106 = 360

Subtract 106 from both sides:

2x = 254

Divide both sides by 2:

x = 254 / 2

x = 127
