Answer:
Step-by-step explanation
- Let x be the number of adults and y the number of kids
We can then write this two equations :
x+y= 33
15x+7y= 311
- let's solve the two eaquations
to do that we should combine them both in a way that help us get rid of one of the variables.
Let's multiply the first equation by -7 to get rid of y by adding it to thr second equation
-7x-7y= -231
now add both equations .
15x+7y-7x-7y=311-231
we get : 8x = 80
as you notice y is gone and we get a classic easy equation to solve
x= 80/8
= 10
so the number of adults is 10
let's go back to the first equation ( x+y= 33) and replace x with 10
10+y= 33
y= 33-10
=23
let's check using the second equation :
(10*15)+(23*7) = 311
that is true
so :
- the number of adults is 10
- the number of kids is 23
The coefficient represents how many quarters it is
We can find the height of the altitude by the ratio of sin. See my attachment.
sin of angle = side in front of the angle / hypotenuse
sin x = height/distance
If the two pilot is rising in an hour, then the first distance is 400 miles, the second distance is 300 miles.
Find the height of first pilotheight/distance = sin x
height/400 = sin 30°
height = sin 30° × 400
height = 1/2 × 400
height = 200
Find the height of second pilotheight/distance = sin x
height/300 = sin 40°
height = sin 40° × 300
height = 0.642 × 300
height = 192
So the first pilot traveling 400 mph with 30° is more quickly to reach high altitude than the second pilot traveling 300 mph with 40°
