Answer:

The wind speed is 20 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = distance/time.

With the wind

230 + w = 400 / t where w is the speed of the wind.

Against the wind:

230 - w = 336/t

From the above equations:

t = 400/ (230 + w)

t = 336/ (230 - w) So:

400/ (230 + w) = 336/ (230 - w)

336(230 + w) = 400(230 - w)

77280 + 336w = 92000 - 400w

736w = 92000 - 77280 = 14720

w = 14720 / 736

w = 20.

3 1/2 - 1 1/3 x x= 1

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The value of x for the given expression is $\frac{15}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

<u>The expression is written </u>

3 $\dfrac{1}{2}$ - 1 $\dfrac{1}{3}$ × x = 1

Or, 1 $\dfrac{1}{3}$ × x = 3 $\dfrac{1}{2}$ - 1

Or, $\frac{(1\times 3) + 1}{3}$ × x = $\frac{(3\times 2) + 1}{2}$ - 1

Or, $\dfrac{4}{3}$ × x = $\dfrac{7}{2}$ - 1

Or, $\dfrac{4}{3}$ × x = $\dfrac{7-2}{2}$

Or, $\dfrac{4}{3}$ × x = $\dfrac{5}{2}$

∴ x = $\frac{\frac{5}{2}}{\frac{4}{3}}$

Or, x = $\frac{5\times 3}{2\times 4}$

I.e x = $\frac{15}{8}$

So, The value of x = $\frac{15}{8}$

Hence The value of x for the given expression is $\frac{15}{8}$ Answer

How many solutions does this linear system have?

ziro4ka [17]

Answer: C is correct, No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s simplify the second equation,

8x-4y=-20

We can divide the whole equation by 4...

8x/4-4y/4=-20/4

Which becomes....

2x-y=-5

Now let’s move things around to see if it’s the same equation as the one on top...

-y=-2x-5

y=2x+5

Now we need to solve the systems...

y=2x-5

y=2x+5

Since their slopes are both 2 and their y-intercepts are not identical, the answer is no solution. The two lines will continue on without ever crossing because they have the same slope.

If line n bisects CE, find CD.

Artist 52 [7]

If it bisect, then using the Line Bisector Theorem, it must be equal.

So x+6=4x-21

get like terms on 1 side

x+6=4x-21

-x. +21

27= 3x

x=9

plug the x in

CD= 9+6

CD=15
