Answer: a) 490.91 mph

b) 540 mph

c) speed of the​ wind = 49.1 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that flight between Joppetown and Jawsburgh took 5 hours and 30 minutes.

Time t = 5.5hours

Distance = 2700 miles

Speed = distance/ time

Speed = 2700/5.5

Speed = 490.91 mph

The return flight took 5 hours of the same distance from = 2700 ​miles

Speed = 2700/5 = 540 mph

speed of the​ wind = the difference in the two speed

speed of the​ wind = 450 - 490.91

speed of the​ wind = 49.1 mph

Speed = 540m/s

Answer:

a. Yes. The difference is common and equal to $1750

b. $1750

c. $20000 was initial investment

e. After another 10 years (on the top of 5 given) the investment will be:

  • y = 1750*15 + 20000 = $46250

f. After 20 years the value of investment will be:

  • y = 1750*20 + 20000 = $55000
