Answer:

20 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

traveling against the wind was 160mph (400/2.5)

traveling with the wind was 200mph (400/2)

going against the wind is going in the negative direction of the wind speed, and going with the wind is going in a positive direction of the wind speed, therefore the wind speed is |direction1-direction2|/2, which would be |200-160|/2 = |40|/2 = 20mph

(180mph is neutral speed with no wind, with wind affecting this neutral speed ±20mph)

a quarterback is sacked for a loss of 5 yards.On the next day his team loses 15 yards.Then the team gains 12 yards on the third
Veronika [31]

Assume it is first down and ten in this problem. When you lose 5 yards on the sack, you are 5 yards further away. So now, it is second and 15. Then, they lose another 15 yards, so it's now third and 30. The final play is that they gain 12 yards, meaning after all the plays it is fourth down and eighteen yards to go.

In math symbols, 0 is where the first down marker is. You start at -10.

First play, the sack: -10 - 5 = -15

Second play: -15 - 15 = -30

Third play: -30 + 12 = -18.

Looks like you have to punt on fourth down :)

Y is 1 1/3 times x.
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

B. 4:3

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: I use the '&' mark to symbolize mixed fractions, since it's easy to mistake the whole number for part of the numerator. Don't do this for assignments, as it's not proper.

1 & 1/3 = 4/3

Thus, the answer is B. 4:3.
