The two planes are flying on the two legs of a right triangle.
The straight distance between them is the hypotenuse of the triangle.
Since the speeds are in mph, let's work the time in hours.
Call the time 'H' that we're looking for.
It's the number of hours after they both take off that they're 650 miles apart.
After 'H' hours, the first plane has gone 500H miles north.
After 'H' hours, the second plane has gone 1200H miles east.
After 'H' hours, they are 650 miles apart.
Do you remember this for a right triangle ? ==> A² + B² = C²
(500H)² + (1200H)² = (650)²
250,000H² + 1,440,000H² = 422,500
1,690,000 H² = 422,500
H² = (422,500) / (1,690,000) = 0.25
H = √0.25 = 1/2 hour = 30 minutes
Answer:
Percent of rise of a new truck on a used truck = 15%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the percentage of saved money if Jason buying a used truck.
Given:
Price of the used truck = $34,000
Price of the new truck = $40,000
We need to find the percent of rise Jason saves on a used truck rather than buying a new truck
Solution:
Using a percentage formula.
Substitute Percentage cost = 34,000 and Original cost = 40,000 in above formula.
(
)
Using cross multiplication rule.
x = 15%
Therefore, Jason used 15% rise of a new truck for a used truck.

Let x be the number of days.
Daily pass:
65x + 30x
95x
Season pass:
400 + 30x
95x > 400 + 30x
65x > 400
x > 6.15
The number of days can't be 6.15, so you must round. You can't go down because then the price will be more expensive, so you have to round up.
It would take 7 days until the season pass is less expensive than the daily pass.
----------------------
You can check this by plugging in the x.
95x > 400 + 30x
95(7) > 400 + 30(7)
665 > 400 + 210
665 > 600
The daily pass is more expensive than the season pass.
