Y= 15(x) should be your equation based on the table below
Answer:the plane in still air is 904 km/h
the rate of the wind is 104 km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the rate or speed of the plane in still air.
Let y represent the rate or speed of the wind.
Flying against the wind, an airplane travels 4000 kilometers in 5 hours. This means that the total speed of the airplane would be (x - y) km/h
Distance = speed × time
Therefore
4000 = 5(x - y)
4000 = 5x - 5y - - - - - - - - -1
Flying with the wind, the same plane travels 5040 kilometers in 4 hours. This means that the total speed of the airplane would be (x + y) km/h. Therefore,
5040 = 4(x + y)
5040 = 4x + 4y - - - - - - - - - 2
Multiplying equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 5, it becomes
16000 = 20x - 20y
20160 = 20x + 20y
Subtracting, it becomes
- 4160 = - 40y
y = - 4160/-40
y = 104
Substituting y = 104 into equation 1, it becomes
4000 = 5x - 5 × 104
4000 = 5x - 520
5x = 4000 + 520
5x = 4520
x = 4520/5 = 904
Answer:
x = 2, or x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
If 2x - 3 is inside the parenthesis (), then the value of x is 2.
If 2x - 3 is inside the absolute value sign, then the value of x will probably be -1.
<u>Solution 1</u>
(10x-15) + 4 = 9
10x -11 = 9
10x = 20 -> x = 2
<u>Solution 2</u> (Not 100% sure)
|10x -15| +4 = 9
10x + 15 +4 = 9
10x + 19 = 9
10x = -10 -> x = -1
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

When you say right of the point do you mean the positive side? If you are it can be 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10.........
