Answer:

One plane has a speed of 450 km/h and the other has a speed of 900 km/h.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to say that:

The speed of the first plane is x.

The speed of the second plane is y.

One plane is flying at twice the speed of the other.

I will say that y = 2x. We could also say that x = 2y.

Two airplanes leave an airport at the same time, flying in the same direction

They fly in the same direction, so their relative speed(difference) at the end of each hour is y - x = 2x - x = x.

If after 4 hours they are 1800 km apart, find the speed of each plane

After 1 hour, they will be x km apart. After 4, 1800. So

1 hour - x km apart

4 hours - 1800 km apart

4x = 1800

x = 1800/4

x = 450

2x = 2*450 = 900

One plane has a speed of 450 km/h and the other has a speed of 900 km/h.

Find p(2) and p(4) for the function p(x) = 6x4 + 4x3 – 3x2 + 8x + 15.
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

p(2) =147 and p(4) = 1791

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given p(x)= 6x^4 + 4x^3 – 3x^2 + 8x + 15.

Now we need to find value of p(2) and p(4)

Put x =2,

p(2) = 6(2)^4 + 4(2)^3 – 3(2)^2 + 8(2) + 15

p(2) = 6(16)+4(8)-3(4)+8(2)+15

p(2) = 96+32-12+16+15

p(2) = 147

Now put x = 4

p(4) = 6(4)^4 + 4(4)^3 – 3(4)^2 + 8(4) + 15

p(4) = 6(256)+4(64)-3(16)+8(4)+15

p(4) = 1536+256-48+32+15

p(4) = 1791

8 times of the eight term of an arithmetic progression is equal to 12 times of the twelfth term. find its first term if the comm
Ilya [14]

Answer:

a₁ = 38

Step-by-step explanation:

Given AP, where:

  • 8a₈ = 12a₁₂
  • d = -2,
  • a₁ = ?

=============

<h3>Solution</h3>

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d

  • a₈ = a₁ + 7d = a₁ + 7*(-2) = a₁ - 14
  • a₁₂ = a₁ + 11d = a₁ + 11*(-2) = a₁ - 22

8a₈ = 12a₁₂

  • 8(a₁ - 14) = 12(a₁ - 22)
  • 2(a₁ - 14) = 3(a₁ - 22)
  • 2a₁ - 28 = 3a₁ - 66
  • 3a₁ - 2a₁ = -28 + 66
  • a₁ = 38

Somebody please help me with my homework it do tomorrow!!!
xxTIMURxx [149]

The solution to given system of equations is (x, y) = (2, -1)

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given system of equations are:

-1x + 2y = -4  -------- eqn 1

4x + 3y = 5 ------- eqn 2

We can solve the above system of equations by elimination method

<em><u>Multiply eqn 1 by 4</u></em>

4(-1x + 2y = -4)

-4x + 8y = -16  ------ eqn 3

<em><u>Add eqn 2 and eqn 3</u></em>

4x + 3y = 5

-4x + 8y = -16

( + ) --------------------

0x + 11y = -16 + 5

11y = -11

y = -1

<em><u>Substitute y = -1 in eqn 1</u></em>

-1x + 2(-1) = -4

-x -2 = -4

-x = -4 + 2

-x = -2

x = 2

<em><u>Check the answer:</u></em>

Substitute x = 2 and y = -1 in eqn 2

4x + 3y = 5

4(2) + 3(-1) = 5

8 - 3 = 5

5 = 5

Thus the obtained answer is correct

Thus the solution to given system of equations is (x, y) = (2, -1)

Clare is paid $90 for 5 hours of work. At thos rate how many seconds does i take for her to earn 25 cents?
natka813 [3]

We are given

Clare is paid $90 for 5 hours of work

Total money paid =$90

total hours of work =5 hours

so, firstly  we will find rate of work

rate of work = ( total money paid)/( total hours of work)

now, we can plug values

and we get

The rate of work is

=\frac{90}{5}

=18 $/ hour

now, we have to find time for amount paid is 25 cents

so, amount paid =25 cents

100 cents =1$

so, amount paid =$ 0.25

Since, the rate is constant

so, we can take same rate here

now, we can use formula

rate of work = ( total money paid)/( total hours of work)

now, we can plug values

18=\frac{0.25}{T}

now, we can solve for T

T=\frac{0.25}{18} hour

since, T is in hours

so, we can change into seconds

1 hour =3600seconds

so, we can plug

T=\frac{0.25}{18}\times 3600 seconds

T=50 seconds......................Answer
