A private jet flies the same distance in 8 hours that a commercial jet flies in 7 hours. If the speed of the commercial jet was

mamaluj [8]

Solving a system of equations, we can see that:

Speed of the private jet: 168 mi/h
Speed of the commercial jet: 192mi/h

<h3>How to find the speeds of each jet?</h3>

Let's define the variables:

P = speed of the private jet.
C = speed of the commercial jet.

With the given information, we can write:

P*8h = D

C*7h = D

C = 2*P - 144mi/h

So we have a system of 3 equations, where D is the distance in the problem.

With the first and second equations we can write:

P*8h = D = C*7h

Isolating P, we get:

P = C*(7/8)

Now we can replace that in the last equation:

C = 2*P - 144mi/h

C = 2*C*(7/8) - 144mi/h

And now we can solve that for C.

C - 2*(7/8)*C = - 144mi/h

C*(1 - 14/8) = -144mi/h

C*(8/8 - 14/8) = - 144mi/h

C*(6/8) = 144mi/h

C = (8/6)*144mi/h = 192mi/h

Now that we know the speed of the commercial jet, we can find the speed of the private jet.

P = C*(7/8) = 192mi/h*(7/8) = 168 mi/h

A mistake was made in mixing the lemonade—<br> PLEASE HELP!!

beks73 [17]

Answer:

Part A:

$4 + x = y$

$0.5*4 + 1*x = 0.7*y$

$x = 8/3\ quarts\ of\ 100\%\ solution$

$y = 20/3\ quarts\ of\ 70\%\ solution$

Part B:

$x + y = 10$

$2x + 3y = 23$

$x = 7$ and $y = 3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

The inicial concentration of the lemonade is 50%, and the volume is 4 quarts, and we will add x quarts of a lemonade with a concentration of 100%, so the total volume will be y, and the concentration will be 0.7, so we have that:

$4 + x = y$

$0.5*4 + 1*x = 0.7*y$

Using the value of y from the first equation in the second one, we have:

$2 + x = 0.7*(4 + x)$

$2 + x = 2.8 + 0.7x$

$0.3x = 0.8$

$x = 8/3\ quarts$

$y = 4 + 8/3 = 20/3\ quarts$

Part B:

If he shoots a total of ten targets, we can write the equation:

$x + y = 10$

Each stationary target is 2 points, and each moving target is 3 points, so if the total points is 23, we have:

$2x + 3y = 23$

If we subtract the second equation by two times the first one, we have:

$2x + 3y - 2*(x + y) = 23 - 2*10$

$2x + 3y - 2x - 2y = 23 - 20$

$y = 3$

$x + 3 = 10$ ⇒ $x = 7$

A wind turbine is located at the top of a hill where the wind blows steadily at 12 m/s, and stands 37 m tall. The air then exits

marta [7]

Answer:

Power generated = 4.315 kW

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

speed of wind when enters into the turbine, V = 12 m/s

speed of wind when exits from the turbine, U = 9 m/s

mass flow rate of the wind, m = 137 kg/s

According to the law of conservation of energy

Energy generated = change in kinetic energy

Since, the air is exiting at same elevation. So, we will consider only kinetic energy.

Energy generated in one second will be given by,

$E\ =\ \dfrac{1}{2}.mV^2-\dfrac{1}{2}.m.U^2$

$=\ \dfrac{1}{2}\times 137\times (12)^2-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 137\times (9)^2$

=4315.5 J

= 4.315 kJ

So, energy is generated in one second = 4.315 kJ

Power generated can be given by,

$P\ =\ \dfrac{\textrm{energy generated}}{time}$

And the energy is generated is already in per second so power generated will be 4.315 kW.

Write a quadratic equation with the solutions x=-5+sqrt 13/2 , -5-sqrt 13 /2 HELP please

QveST [7]

Answer:

If we used the quadratic formula to solve the equation we can say:

-b = -5

b² - 4ac = 13

2a = 2

Solving the first and last equations we get b = 5 and a = 1. Substituting these values into the second equation we get:

25 - 4c = 13

Solving this we get c = 3 so the answer is x² + 5x + 3.
