14560=13000(1+r)^4/12
Now can you solve for r?
Answer:
360 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
let speed of plane be x
speed of wind be c
Also note D = RT, where
D is distance and R is rate and T is time
<u>For First Leg:</u>
we can write:
(x - c) * 2 = D
2x - 2c = D
<u>For Second Leg:</u>
we can write:
(x+c)*1.5 = D
1.5x + 1.5c = D
We can equate and write:
2x - 2c = 1.5x + 1.5c
0.5x = 3.5c
We know Speed of Wind, c, is 30, so we have:
0.5x = 3.5(30)
0.5x = 105
x = 105/0.5 = 210 [speed of airplane]
We know distance is
D = 2x - 2c
D = 2(210) - 2(30)
D = 420 - 60
D = 360 miles
The distance is 360 miles

Answer:
x-intercept: (16, 0)
y-intercept: (0, 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Each intercept is found by setting the other variable to zero and solving for the variable of interest.
I like to find the intercepts from this form because it basically involves dividing the constant by the variable coefficient.
<u>x-intercept</u>
y = 0, so we have 4x = 64 ⇒ x = 64/4 = 16
x-intercept is (16, 0)
<u>y-intercept</u>
x = 0, so we have 8y = 64 ⇒ y = 64/8 = 8
y-intercept is (0, 8)

<em>Additional comment</em>
There is a form of the linear equation called the "intercept form" that looks like this:
x/a +y/b = 1
where 'a' is the x-intercept and 'b' is the y-intercept.
You can get this form by dividing the standard form equation by the constant. Here, that gives ...
4x/64 +8y/64 = 1
x/16 +y/8 = 1
This is nice because it gives both intercepts with one operation (divide by the constant). It's easy enough to do, but not always easy to explain. This form of the equation of a line is rarely seen.
Answer:
8x + 6 + 4 = 3x - (2x + 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
When Gio applies the distributive property, the equation above is the result. Naturally, I look at the 1st parenthesis I see and start the 1st distributive property there first. The 2nd distributive property would be the other parenthesis where you multiply by -1, so you would get 8x + 6 + 4 = 3x - 2x - 4
Answer:
B has a negative exponent: 8 x 10^-7
A doesn't: 4.267 x 10^7
