Answer:

  • jet in still air: 712 mi/h
  • jetstream rate: 50 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between speed, time, and distance is ...

  speed = distance/time

Against the wind, the speed is ...

  (3310 mi)/(5 h) = 662 mi/h

With the wind, the speed is ...

  (3810 mi)/(5 h) = 762 mi/h

The jet stream adds to the speed in one direction, and subtracts in the other direction, so the difference in travel speeds is twice the speed of the jet stream:

  (762 mi/h -662 mi/h)/2 = jet stream speed = 50 mi/h

__

The speed of the plane is the average of the two speeds, or the sum of jet stream speed and the lower speed, or the difference of the higher speed and the jet stream speed. Any of these calculations will give the plane's speed in still air:

  (762+662)/2 = 662 +50 = 762 -50 = 712 . . . mi/h

Find the maximum and minimum values of the function. y=1/2sin2x
kykrilka [37]

Answer:  

(-1/2,1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Normally for sinx amplitude is 2 (1 +1). In the case when it is half sine amplitude is halved, therefore 0.5 +0.5 = 1 Paramers alpha = 2x does not matter because it only stretches the graph horizontally.

If LM = 4x, MN = x + 1, and LN = 6, what is MN?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

The value of the MN is 2 according to the assumption on the number line.

According to the statement

We have to find that the value of the MN with the help of the value of the x.

So, For this purpose, we know that the

A number line is a horizontal line that has equally spread number increments.

Now,

Assuming that L, M, and N are points on a number line with L < M < N,

According to the assumption, the equation become

4x + x+1 = 6  

5x +1 =6

5x =5

x = 1.        

Now, the value of the MN become:

MN = x + 1

MN = 1 + 1

MN = 2.

So, The value of the MN is 2 according to the assumption on the number line.
