Two passengers leave the airport at Kansas City, Missouri. One flies to Los Angeles, California, in 3.4 hr and the other flies i

n the opposite direction to New York City in 2.4 hr. With prevailing westerly winds, the speed of the plane to New York City is 60 mph faster than the speed of the plane to Los Angeles. If the total distance traveled by both planes is 2464 mi, determine the average speed of each plane.

Answer:  x = 400 MPH    x+60 = 460 MPH

Step-by-step explanation:

(Distance = (Rate)(Time)

Let x = speed of the LA bound plane

Then, x+60 = speed of NYC bound plane

Sum of distances = 2464

3.4x + 2.4(x+60) = 2464

         5.8x + 144 = 2464

                  5.8x = 2320

                      x = 400 MPH    x+60 = 460 MPH

Answer:

This should be parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are said to be parallel only if their slope matches. They are said to be perpendicular only if the slopes are negative reciprocals.

Here, you should put both equations in slope intercept form which is y=mx+b. The letter "M" represents the slope of both equations.

2y-6=3x+4 turns into 2y=3x+10 after adding 6 and into y=3/2x+5 after dividing the equation by 2. The slope for this equation is 3/2.

8y=12x+8 must be divided by 8 to be in slope intercept form. This equation becomes y=3/2x+1. Here the slope is also 3/2.

The slopes for each equation match making these lines parallel.

rjkz [21]
2.25y + 7.25z + 11.25  \geq 35 \\ y = 2 \\ z = 3 \\ 2.25(2) + 7.25(3) + 11.25 \geq 35 \\ 4.50 + 21.75 + 11.25  \geq 35 \\ 37.5  \geq 35
The answer will be the third one: Yes, because the total will be $37.50.
