Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

R is the speed of the plane

S is the speed of the wind

(R-S)*7 = 7490 <--- against the wind

(R+s)*9 = 11610 <--- with the wind

Distributes:

7R - 7S  = 7490

9R + 9S = 11610

Multiplies the top equation by 9

and the bottom equation by 7

63R - 63S = 67410

63R + 63s = 81270

126R = 148680

R=1180

Plugs into original first equation

(R-S)*7 = 7490

(1180-s)*7 = 7490

 1180 - s = 7490/7

1180 - s = 1070

-s = -110

s = 110

The speed of the plane in still air is 1180

The spped of the wind is 110

This is awfully fast.

Karen was trying to factor 6x^2+10 She found that the greatest common factor of these terms was 2 and made an area model
Kay [80]
<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2></h2>

In this case we have the following expression:

6x^2+10

We know that Karen was trying to factor out this and she found that the greatest common factor of these terms was 2, in other words we can write this expression as:

2(3x^2+5)

An area model for this expression could be the area of a rectangle that has the following dimensions:

W=2 \\ \\ L=3x^2+5 \\ \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ W:width \\ \\ L:length

So the area model can be written as:

A=W\times L \\ \\ \boxed{A=2(3x^2+5)}
