Two jet planes simultaneously started travelling in opposite directions from the same airport. Four hours later they were 3800 m

iles apart. If one plane traveled 80 miles per hour faster than the other, what was the speed of each plane?A tourist starts to walk up a mountain path that is 31 miles long at the rate of 4 miles per hour. After walking for a while, he gets tired and decides to get a taxi. The taxi gets him to the top travelling at a constant speed of 50 mph. If the tourist reaches the destination 2 hours after he started, what distance does he have to pay the cab driver for?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the speed of one plane=x

speed of other plane=x+80

time=4 hrs

then 4x+4(x+80)=3800

4x+4x+320=3800

8x=3800-320

or 8x=3480

x=435

speed of one plane=435 m/h

speed of other plane=435+80=515 m/h

2.

Let he walks x hrs

then he take a taxi for 2-x hrs

4x+(2-x)50=31

4x+100-50x=31

-46x=-69

x=\frac{-69}{-46}=\frac{3}{2}

so he walks 3/2 hrs=1.5 hrs

travels by taxi=2-1.5=0.5 hrs

distance traveled by taxi=0.5×50=25 miles

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Pentagon has 5 sides

The formula for finding the sum of the measure of the interior angles is (n - 2) * 180

(5-2)×180= 3×180=540

To get each interior angles

540/5 = 108

180 -108 = 72

To get x

72+72+x= 180 (sum if angles in a triangle)

144+x= 180

x = 180 -144 = 36

2. x is part of the interior angles = 108
