Answer:

Speed of plane in still air: 490  mile/hour

speed of wind: 70  mile/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

still speed = x        wind speed = w

with wind: speed = still + wind

(x+w) * 3 = 1680     ...a

against wind: speed = still - wind

(x-w) * 4 = 1680    ...b

b-a ... 4x-4w-3x-3w = 0

x-7w = 0

x = 7w

substitution: (7w+w)*3 = 1680      8w = 560       wind speed (w) = 70

still speed (x) = 7w = 490 mile/hour

The linear function f(x) = 0.9x + 79 represents the average test score in your math class, where x is the number of the test tak
Levart [38]

Given:

The linear function for average test score in your math class is

f(x)=0.9x+79

where x is the number of the test taken.

The linear function g(x) in the given table represents the average test score in your science class, where x is the number of the test taken.

To find:

Part A: The test average for your math class after completing test 2.

Part B: The test average for your science class after completing test 2.

Part C: Which class had a higher average after completing test 4?

Solution:

Part A:

We have,

f(x)=0.9x+79

Put x=2 in the above function, to find the test average for your math class after completing test 2.

f(2)=0.9(2)+79

f(2)=1.8+79

f(2)=80.8

Therefore, the test average for your math class after completing test 2 is 80.8.

Part B:

From the given table it is clear that g(x) =79 at x=2.

Therefore, the test average for your science class after completing test 2 is 79.

Part C:

Put x=4 in f(x), to find the test average for your math class after completing test 4.

f(4)=0.9(4)+79

f(4)=3.6+79

f(4)=82.6

From the table it is clear that the value of g(x) is increased by 1 as x is increased by 1. So, the value of function g(x) at x=4 must be 1 more than 80.

g(4)=81

It is clear that,

82.6>81

Therefore, math class had a higher average after completing test 4.
