Answer: speed of plane in still air is 180 miles per hour

speed of the wind is 18 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Flying with the wind, the plane went 198 miles per hour. This means if was flying in the same direction with the wind. This is same as the speed in still air because there was no opposition from the wind.

Flying into the same wind the plane only went 162 mph. This means that the plane flew against the wind

Let x = the speed of the plane

Let y = the speed of the wind

when flying with the wind,

x + y = 198 - - - - - - -1

When flying against the wind,

x - y = 162 - - - - - - - -2

Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1,

y - - y = 198 - 162

2y = 36

y = 36/2 = 18 miles per hour

x = 198 - y = 198 -18

x = 180 miles per hour

Charlotte has been saving up to buy a home gym so she can work out at home without having to pay for a
Y_Kistochka [10]

The 15% discount for home gym, and the $889 cost of the Flex 3,000 gives;

1. f(x) = 0.85•x + 139.95

2.

  1. With the deal, Charlotte's before tax cost is $895.6
  2. The deal cost is more than the initial price making the deal not worth it.

3. The domain is; 889 < x < ∞

The range is; 895.6 ≤ f(x) ‹ ∞

<h3>How can the function notation for the cost be found?</h3>

1. The percentage discount Charlotte gets = 15% = 0.15

Cost of the 6 months subscription = $139.95

f(x) = Final before tax

x = Price of the home gym equipment

Therefore;

Given the 15% off, we get;

f(x) = (1-0.15)•x + 139.95

Which gives;

  • f(x) = 0.85•x + 139.95

2. Question 1

Cost of the Flex3000, <em>x</em> = $889

Therefore;

f(889) = 0.85 × 889 + 139.95 = 895.6

Charlotte's before–tax cost with the deal is therefore, $895.6

Given that the workout channel holds no value to Charlotte, and the deal cost is higher than the initial cost, it isn't worth it for her to pay for the subscription to get the 15% discount

3. The domain if the Awesome Flex is the cheapest option, is the possible initial price of the home gym equipment.

The domain is therefore;

  • 889 < x < ∞

The range is the possible values of the before tax cost.

The range is therefore;

  • 895.6 ≤ f(x) ‹ ∞
