Let p and w represent the speed of the plane and the speed of the wind, respectively.
.. speed = distance/time
.. p +w = 720/3 = 240
.. p -w = 720/4 = 180
Add the two equations to eliminate w.
.. 2p = 420
.. p = 210
.. w = p -180 = 30
The speed of the wind is 30 mph.
The speed of the plane in still air is 210 mph.
Answer:
Oh, how morbid these interest problems are.
Are you asking how much they would recieve in a year?
If so:
40000/100=400
400*60=$24000 a year
The constants, -3 and -8, are like terms
The terms 3p and p are like terms
The terms in the expression are p^2, -3, 3p, -8, p, p^3
The expression contains 6 terms.
Like terms have the same variables raised to the same powers.
Answer:
75
Step-by-step explanation:
Jim will finish in 6 days because 300/50=6
So you know that Sam needs to finish the book in at exactly 4 days
300/4= 75 pages per day
