- Prove that linear functions change at the same rate over time. ... Linear functions take the form y = mx + b. An exponential function is in the form y = ax. It is easy to see the difference between a linear and exponential function on a graph.

A. 19. You have to set them up equal to each other. So, 6x-2=4x+36. You then subtract the 4x from the 6x, and add 2 to 36. Which leaves you with 2x=38. Divide and you get 19! Hope this helps

To solve this question you have to use TAN COS SIN i give brainiest

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use cosine:

cos = adjacent / hypotenuse
cos ∠L = KL/JL
cos 21° = 4/x
x = 4 / cos 21°
x = 4.3 (rounded)

a plane flying with the wind travels 630 mi in 1.5hrs. Flying against the wind , the plane travels 1120 mi in 4hrs. Find the rat

Flauer [41]

$\bf \begin{cases}
r=\textit{rate of the plane}\\
w=\textit{rate of the wind}\\
\end{cases}
\\\\

\begin{array}{ccccllll}
&distance&rate&time(hrs)\\
&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\
\textit{with wind}&630&r+w&1\frac{1}{2}\\
\textit{against wind}&1120&r-w&4
\end{array}
$

$\bf thus \begin{cases}
630=(r+w)1\frac{1}{2}\to 630=(r+w)\frac{3}{2}
\\\\
1120=(r-w)4\\
--------------\\
630=(r+w)\frac{3}{2}\implies 630\cdot \frac{2}{3}=r+w\\
420=r+w\implies \boxed{420-w}=r\\
--------------\\
thus\\
--------------\\
1120=(r-w)4\implies 1120=4r-4w
\\\\
1120=4(\boxed{420-w})-4w
\end{cases}
$

solve for "w", to find the wind's speed rate,

so hmmm what's the plane's rate? well 420 - w = r :)
