Answer:

104 miles (nearest whole number)

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying Pythagorean theorem which is: c² = a² + b². Where,

c = distance between the two planes = ?

a = distance of the first plane from the airport = 80 - 1 = 79 miles

b = distance of the second plane from the airport = 68 - 1 = 67 miles

c² = 79² + 67²

c² = 10,730

c = √10,730

c = 103.585713

c = 104 miles (nearest whole number)

Zander read 13 3/4pages in 1/4 of an hour. Sydney read 43 1/3 pages in 2/3 of an hour. At these rates, would Zander or Sydney re

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

At these rates Sydney read 10 pages per hour more than Zander.

Step-by-step explanation:

Zander read $13\frac{3}{4}$ pages in $\frac{1}{4}$ of an hour.

Therefore, pages read by Zander in 1 hour = $\frac{\text{Total pages read}}{\text{Total time taken}}$

= $\frac{13\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{1}{4}}$

= $\frac{55}{4}\times \frac{4}{1}$

= 55 pages per hour

Sydney read $43\frac{1}{3}$ pages in $\frac{2}{3}$ of an hours.

Pages read by Sydney in 1 hour = $\frac{43\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{2}{3} }$

= $\frac{130}{3}\times \frac{3}{2}$

= 65 pages per hour

Therefore, number of pages read more by Sydney as compared to Zander,

= 65 - 55

= 10 pages per hour

At these rates Sydney read 10 pages per hour more than Zander.

The price increased by %60. Why? Because 160% of 500 is 800, so that must mean the percent only increased by 60.
