It's scientific notation, so 1.4x10^7 would be 14000000 <span />
Answer: 55 feet of rope
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value of -30 is the distance 30 is away from 0, so |-30| = 30. And |25| = 25.
|-30| + |25| = 30 + 25 = 55
Let the speed of plane in still air be x and that wind be y
therefore:
x+y=490
x-y=390
next we solve for the values of x and y, first we add the above equations. This will give us:
2x=880
x=880/2
x=440 miles per hour.
substituting the value of x in one of the equations and solving for y we get:
440+y=490
y=490-440
y=50 miles per hour
C is the answer.
The other ones do not make as much sense i am not completely sure.
