Against the wind a small plane flew 715 miles in 2 hours and 10 minutes. The return trip took only 1 hour and 50 minutes. What w

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

360 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed for the outbound trip was ...

speed = distance/time = (715 mi)/(2 1/6 h) = 330 mi/h

The inbound speed was ...

(715 mi)/(1 5/6 h) = 390 mi/h

The airspeed of the plane is the average of these two ground speeds, so is ...

(330 +390)/2 = 360 . . . . mi/h

Simplify the radical expression 5√7+2√175

yanalaym [24]

$5\sqrt{7} + 2\sqrt{175}=5\sqrt{7}+2\sqrt{25 \cdot 7}=5\sqrt{7}+ 2 \cdot \sqrt{25} \cdot \sqrt{7}= \\ \\ = 5\sqrt{7}+2 \cdot 5 \cdot \sqrt{7}=5\sqrt{7}+10\sqrt{7}=\boxed{15\sqrt{7}} \approx 39.69$

remember about formula $\sqrt{ab} = \sqrt{a} \cdot \sqrt{b}$
