Answer:

606.6 and 233.3 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of plane in still air be x and the speed of wind be y.

ATQ, (x+y)*9=7560 and (x-y)*9=3360. Solving it, we get x=606.6 and y=233.3

Answer:

You use the facts about a 30, 60, 90 triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles in a triangle add up to 180.

90+30+x=180

120+x=180

x=60

This is a 30-60-90 right triangle.

The side opposite the 30 degree angle is a.

The side opposite the 90 degree angle (hypotenuse) is 2a.

The side opposite the 60 degree angle is a\sqrt{3}

We know the side opposite the 90 degree angle.

2a = 12\sqrt{3}

Divide by 2.

a=6\sqrt{3}

a is the side opposite the 30 degree angle (y)

Because we know a, we can find a\sqrt{3}.

6\sqrt{3 } (\sqrt{3})

The square roots cancel, leaving 3.

6 times 3 is 18.

Therefore, the side opposite the 60 degree angle (x) is 18.

The problem is how many people must attend the third show so that the average attendance for three shows is 3000? And the other
Akimi4 [234]
An average is just the total attendance numbers / the number of performances.

Let's let the number of people in the third show be equal to x so we can write this as a formula, it's easier to read. x is just "some number we don't know"

The average is

Average=Total attendance/3
So
3000=(2580+2920+x)/3

So let's multiply by that 3 on both sides, make x easier to find

Average*3=2580+2920+x ( * means multiplied)

The average is 3000

So

2580+2920+x=3000*3
2580+2920+x=9000
 

Then we subtract those other attendances to get x on its own.

x=9000-2580-2920
x=3500
