Answer:

Speed of wind = 23.63 miles per hour

Plane speed in still air = 260 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken with wind = 5 hour

Time taken against wind = 6 hour

Assume;

Speed of wind = s

So,

Speed of Plane with wind = (260 + s) miles per hour

Speed of Plane against wind = (260 - s) miles per hour

Distance = speed x time

So,

(260 + s)5 = (260 - s)6

1,300 + 5s = 1,560 - 6s

11s = 260

s = 23.63 miles per hour

Speed of wind = 23.63 miles per hour

Plane speed in still air = 260 miles per hour

Responder:

2³

5⁴

10³

a^6

Explicação passo a passo:

Quando um certo valor é multiplicado repetidamente,

Por exemplo,

a * a * a * a = a⁴ (a multiplicado 4 vezes)

Por isso,

2 x 2 x 2 = 2³

5 x 5 x 5 x 5 = 5⁴

10 x 10 x 10 = 10³

a x a x a x a x a x a = a^6

8 + (-10) just confused lol
grin007 [14]
8+(-10) is like 10-8 except backwards so how i do some problems is like that and then add a negative sign; so say if i were doing 8+(-10), i would do 10-8 which equals 2 and then since 10 is bigger than 8 and it’s a negative number, i would put -2 as my answer
