50 miles per hour  is the rate (speed) of the wind.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let consider the variable ‘x’ for speed of wind.  

<u>Below we write two values of the speed of the airplane in the air in terms of ‘x’: </u>

1. Subtract wind speed from airplane speed: 250 - x.

2. Add wind speed to the airplane speed against the wind: 150 + x.

And now, set these above two expressions equal to each other to find x (wind speed),

                                      250 – x = 150 + x

                                      2x = 100

                                     x = 50 miles per hour

A parking garage allows users to park the first hour free and then charges $2.50 for each additional hour or fraction of an hour
Snowcat [4.5K]

The first hour is free, and the rest charges is $2.50


Let x be the time.

Let y be the total


Your equation will look like


When x < 2, y = 0

When x > 1, y = $2.50(x)


So:


1 < x < ∞ for hours, then equation will look like:

y = total amount

$2.50 is cost (remember that the first hour is for free, and so you subtract $2.50 from the total.


$2.50x - $2.50 = y should be your equation.


hope this helps

Identify an equation in slope-intercept form for the line parallel toy = 5x + 2 that passes through (–6, –1).
Illusion [34]
The slope-intercept form of a line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. We know that if 2 lines are parallel to one another, their slopes are exactly the same. So the slope of the new line is 5, just like the slope of the original line.  We also have a coordinate in the form of (x, y) to fit into that line equation and solve it for b.  Like this: -1 = 5(-6) + b and -1 = -30 + b and b = 29. Now we can rewrite the equation fitting in the given slope and the newly found y-intercept value of 29: y = 5x + 29 is the new line.

The following proof shows an equivalent system of equations created from another system of equations. Fill in the missing reason
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

<h2>A.Multiplication Property of Equality</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2x+2y=14\\-x+y=5&\text{\underline{multiply both sides by 2}}\end{array}\right\\\\\boxed{\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2x+2y=14\\-2x+2y=10\end{array}\right}}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad\qquad4y=24\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\.\qquad\qquad y=6\\\\\text{put the value of y to the second equation:}\\\\-x+6=5\qquad\text{subtract 6 from both sides}\\-x=-1\qquad\text{change the signs}\\x=1
