Answer:

<em>The speeds are 877 km/h and 947 km/h.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slower plane travels at x km/h. The faster plane travels at (x + 70) km/h. The speed of separation is the sum of the speeds, (2x + 70) km/h.

They are 5472 km after 3 hours of travel.

speed = distance/time

2x + 70 = 5472/3

2x + 70 = 1824

2x = 1754

x = 877

The slower plane travels at 877 km/h.

x + 70 = 877 + 70 = 947

The faster plane travels at 947 km/h.

If = 80°, and m∠BED = 25°, what is ?<br><br> 55°<br> 30°<br> 65°<br> 20°
Tomtit [17]
The complete question in the attached figure

we know that
<span>The measure of the external angle is the semidifference of the arcs that it covers.
so
</span><span>m∠BED =(1/2)*[mAC-mBD]-------> solve for mBD
mBD=mAC-2</span>m∠BED
mBD=80-2*25--------> mBD=30°

the answer is
mBD=30°

Write an equation of the line passing through point P that is perpendicular to the given line.
katovenus [111]

Answer:

y = 1/3x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

*perpendicular means the reciprocal slope of the given line

m = 1/3

y = 1/3x + b

*plug in points with the point-slope equation

10 = 1/3(6) + b

10 = 2 + b

b = 8

*now plug everything into the equation

y = 1/3x + 8
