In both cases, y and x components are solved and added. The resulting hypotenuse is then computed and its direction calculated.

Airplane:
Ф = 270 - 265 = 5°
Hypotenuse, h = 420 mph
y component = 420 Sin Ф = 420 Sin 5 = 36.61 mph
x component = 420 Cos Ф = 420 Cos 5 = 418.40 mph

Wind
Ф = 270 -210 = 60°
Hypotenuse, h = 30 mph
y component = 30 Sin 60 = 25.98 mph
x component = 30 Cos 60 = 15 mph

Total y = 36.61+25.98 = 62.59 mph
Total x = 418.40+15 = 433.40 mph

Resulting speed of airplane = Sqrt (y^2+x^2) = Sqrt (62.59^2+433.40^2) = 437.9 mph
Direction = 270 -[tan^-1 (y/x)] = 270 -[tan^-1(62.59/433.40)] = 261.78°

What is the cross section shown below?
goldenfox [79]
<h3>Answer: Choice A) circle</h3>

Explanation:

Imagine that white rectangle as a blade that cuts the cylinder as the diagram shows. If you pull the top cylinder off and examine the bottom of that upper piece, then you'll see a circle forms. It's congruent to the circular face of the original cylinder. This is because the cutting plane is parallel to both base faces of the cylinder. Any sort of tilt will make an ellipse form. Keep in mind that any circle is an ellipse, but not vice versa.

Another example of a cross section: cut an orange along its center and notice that a circle (more or less) forms showing the inner part of the orange.

Yet another example of a cross section: Imagine an egyptian pyramid cut from the top most point on downward such that you vertically slice it in half. If you pull away one half, you should see a triangular cross section forms.

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

x < - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x - 2 > 4x + 6 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

- 2 > 2x + 6 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

- 8 > 2x ( divide both sides by 2 )

- 4 > x , thus

x < - 4

Kevin has a spinner that has 10 equal sections and 2 sections of each color—red, blue, green, yellow, and purple. Kevin spins th
elena-s [515]
Hello!

You add the amount of sections have red or purple

2 + 2 = 4

Put this over the amount of sections

4 / 10 = 0.4

Multiply this by the amount of times he spins the spinner

180 * 0.4 = 72

The answer is about 72 times

Hope this helps!
