Let <em>w</em> be the wind speed and <em>p</em> the plane's speed in still air.

Flying against the wind, the plane has velocity

<em>p</em> - <em>w</em> = 390 mi/h

and flying with it, it has

<em>p</em> + <em>w</em> = 470 mi/h

Add the two equations together to eliminate <em>w</em> and solve for <em>p</em> :

(<em>p</em> - <em>w</em>) + (<em>p</em> + <em>w</em>) = 390 mi/h + 470 mi/h

2<em>p</em> = 860 mi/h

<em>p</em> = 430 mi/h

Subtract them to eliminate <em>p</em> and solve for <em>w</em> :

(<em>p</em> - <em>w</em>) - (<em>p</em> + <em>w</em>) = 390 mi/h - 470 mi/h

-2<em>w</em> = -80 mi/h

<em>w</em> = 40 mi/h

inna [77]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:  x⁴ + 4x³ + 8x² + 8x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

(x² + 2x - 1)(x² + 2x + 5) = x⁴ + 2x³ + 5x² + 2x³ + 4x² + 10x - x² - 2x - 5

                                       = x⁴ + 4x³ + 8x² + 8x - 5

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the scale that should be required to reproduced that fitted on the brochure is

Given that

Length of rectangular park = 4 inches

And the Breadth of rectangular park = 6 inches

As we know that

Area of rectangular park = length × breadth

= 4×6

= 24 square inches

Now the scale that required to reproduced is

= 24 ÷ 6

= 4 inches

Bond [772]

Answer:

A <u>bi-conditional statement</u> represents the idea of "if and only if." Its symbol is a \leftrightarrow.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an incomplete sentence. We are supposed to fill in the given blank.

A _______ represents the idea of "if and only if." Its symbol is a \leftrightarrow.

We know that "if and only if" stands for bi-conditional statement, which represents either both statements are true or both are false.

The symbol \leftrightarrow represent a bi-conditional statement.

Therefore, our complete statement would be: A <u>bi-conditional statement</u> represents the idea of "if and only if." Its symbol is a \leftrightarrow.

arsen [322]

Answer:

<h2>1,800 pictures</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached below with its dimension.

The board is rectangular in nature with dimension of 3.6 m by 1.8 m wall.

Area of a rectangle = Length * Breadth

Area of the board = 3.6 m * 1.8 m

since 1m -= 100cm

Area of the board = 360cm * 180cm

Area of the board = 64,800cm²

If the dimension of a picture on the wall is 6cm * 6cm, the area of one picture fir on the wall = 6cm* 6cm = 36cm²

In order to know the amount of 6cm* 6cm pictures that will fit on the wall, we will divide the area of the board by the area of one picture as shown;

Number of 6cm by 6cm pictures that  could fit on the wall

= 64, 800cm²/36cm²

= 1,800 pictures
