Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = Distance/Time

If one commuter plane averaged 200 mph flying to a city

Time taken to fly to the city will be;

t1 = d/200

d = 200t1

If he used 120 mph returning to the international airport, the total time used to the airport will be

t2 = d/120

d = 120t2

Since the distance are the same;

200t1 = 120t2

t1/t2 = 120/200

t1/t2 = 3/5

5t1 = 3t2

t1 = 3t2/5

Substitute into t1+t2 = 4

3t2/5 +t2 = 4

8t2/5 = 4

8t2 = 20

t2 = 20/8

t2 = 2.5min

Since d = 120t2

d = 120(2.5)

d = 300miles

Hence the total distance between the two airports is 300miles

Write a division problem with these types of numbers: • The dividend and divisor are both mixed numbers. • The quotient is a who
viktelen [127]

Answer:

1 2/1 ÷1 1/2  = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

dividend ÷ divisor = quotient

1 2/1 ÷1 1/2  = 2

In order to solve this you need to make the mixed numbers into an improper fraction:

3/1 ÷ 3/2

use the KFC method (Keep Change Flip)

When you got to fractions you wanna divide flip the right and multiply

3/1 (2/3)= 2

4 1/2 divided by 2 3/8
Yuki888 [10]
First you make them mixed numbers:
9/2 ÷ 19/8
Then you flip the second fraction around
9/2 ÷ 8/19
Then you change ÷ to ×
9/2 × 8/19
And then multiply across!
72/38 = 1 34/38 = 1 17/19 (the final answer)
Hope this helps!

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

C. Cosine is negative in Quadrant III

<h2>Why?</h2>

Let's discard each given option in order to find the correct:

A. Tangent is negative in Quadrant I: It's false, all functions are positive in Quadrant I (0° to 90°).

B. Sine is negative in Quadrant II: It's false, sine is negative in positive in Quadrant II. Sine function is always positive coming from 90° to 180°.

C. Cosine is negative in Quadrant III. It's true, cosine and sine functions are negative in Quadrant III (180° to 270°), meaning that only tangent and cotangent functions will be positive in Quadrant III.

D. Sine is positive in Quadrant IV: It's false, sine is negative in Quadrant IV. Only cosine and secant functions are positive in Quadrant IV (270° to 360°)

Have a nice day!
