Answer:

plane = 250mi/hr

wind = 5mi/minute

Step-by-step explanation:

speed = distance/time

plane = 1000miles/4hour

wind = 1000miles/200minutes

Answer:

Speed of plane: 275 miles/hour

Speed of wind: 25 miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

1000/4 = P - W

P - W = 250

P = 250 + W

3 hour 20 mins is 10/3 hours

1000/(10/3) = P + W

P + W = 300

250 + W + W = 300

2W = 50

W = 25

P = 250 + 25

P = 275

Angela
50 sq feet/60 min

A rectangular swimming pool that is 10 ft wide by 16 ft long is surrounded by a cement sidewalk of uniform width. If the area of
Alchen [17]
We are asked to solve for the width "x" in the given problem. To visualize the problem, see attached drawing.
We have the area of the swimming pool such as:
Area SP = l x w
Area SP = 10 * 16
Area SP = 160 feet2
Area of the swimming pool plus the sidewalk with uniform width:
Area SP + SW = (10 + x) * (16 + x)
160 + 155 = 160 + 10x + 16x + x2
160 -160 + 155 = 26x + x2
155 = 26 x + x2
x2 + 26x -155= 0
Solving for x, we need to use quadratic formula and the answer is 5 feet.

The value of x is <span>5 feet. </span>
