A cargo plane flew roundtrip from Smithtown to Johnsville. It took one hour less time to get there than it did to get back. The
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

13 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Average speed = Distance traveled / time taken

                   ⇒ Distance = Average speed × Time

                                     d = s × t

For the first trip;

Average speed = 280 mph

                          d₁ = 280t₁                    ------(1)

where;

d₁ is the distance covered to get to the destination

t₁ is the time taken to get to the destination

For the second trip;

Average speed = 240 mph

                           d₂= 240t₂                     ------(2)

where;

d₂ is the distance covered on the way back

t₂ is the time taken on the way back

The trip is the same distance to and fro. Therefore,

                           d₁ = d₂                              

Substituting the equation for d₁ and d₂

                          280t₁ = 240t₂              ------(3)

It took one hour less time to get there than it did to get back, then,

                                 t₁ = t₂ - 1

                                 t₂ = t₁ + 1                ------(4)

Substituting equation (4) into  equation (3)

                               280t₁ = 240(t₁ + 1)

                               280t₁ = 240t₁ + 240

                               280t₁ - 240t₁ = 240

                               40t₁ = 240

                                   t₁ = 240/40

                                   t₁ = 6 hours

From equation (4)

                                   t₂ = t₁ + 1

                                   t₂ = 6 + 1  

                                   t₂ = 7 hours

The total time for the trip is t₁ + t₂ = 6 + 7

                                       = 13 hours

A toy that originally sold for 12 dollars went of sale for 8 dollars what was the percent discount? Remember to show your work!
harkovskaia [24]
12———-100%
8 ———— x
X=(8*100)/12=800/12=66.66%
Then discount percent is 100-66.66=33.33%

Can you guys help me out
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

a. S = 3n + 2

b. There while be 62 squares.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the first term of this sequence is 5. To figure out the equation, subtract the following term from the previous. Do you see a common difference?

8 - 5 = 3

11 - 8 = 3

14 - 11 = 3

We're seeing a constant difference of 3 (which makes this an arithmetic sequence), but the first term is 5. That mean something is being added to make the first term 5. Subtract 3 from 5 to get 2. This means 2 is being added to every multiple of 3, which leads us to the equation: S = 3n + 2.

To find the 20th term of this sequence, substitute n for 20 and do the operations.

S = 3(20) + 2

<em>Multiply 3 by 20, then add 2.</em>

S = 62

The 20th term will have 62 squares.
