Answer:
easy peasy,
the 'n' th term of any arithmetic sequence can be found with the following formula
=> a + ( n-1) d, [where 'a' if the first term of the sequence, 'n' the number of term we need to find, and 'd' being the common difference between each two consecutive term of the sequence)
all in this case would be,
a = 0
n = 100
d = +5
hence the 100th term would be,
=> 0 + (100 - 1) 5
=> 99 x 5
=> 495
Let p and w represent the speed of the plane and the speed of the wind, respectively.
.. speed = distance/time
.. p +w = 720/3 = 240
.. p -w = 720/4 = 180
Add the two equations to eliminate w.
.. 2p = 420
.. p = 210
.. w = p -180 = 30
The speed of the wind is 30 mph.
The speed of the plane in still air is 210 mph.
Answer:
w = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
w + 4 = (-6)
Subtract 4 from each side
w+4-4 = -6-4
w = -10
