Answer:

The drift angle is approximately 7.65° towards the East from the plane's heading

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the plane = 350 mph

The direction in which the plane flies N 40° E = 50° counterclockwise from the eastern direction

The speed of the wind = 40 mph

The direction of the wind = S 70° E = 20° clockwise from the eastern direction

The component velocities of the plane are;

R_{Plane} = (350 × cos 50)·i + (350 × sin 50)·j

R_{Wind} = (40 + cos 20)·i - (40 × sin 40)·j

The resultant speed of the plane = R_{Plane} + R_{Wind} = 265.915·i +242.404·j

The direction the plane is heading = tan⁻¹(242.404/265.915) ≈ 42.35°

Therefore, the drift angle = Actual Angle - Direction of the plane = 50 - 42.35 ≈ 7.65° towards the East

(3x+9)^5=32x^5<br> help solve for x
makvit [3.9K]
Answer:
x = -9

Explanation:

(3x + 9)^5 = 32x^5

(3 (x + 3))^5 = 32x^5

3^5 (x + 3)^5 = 32x^5

243(x + 3)^5 = 32x^5

243(x + 3)^5 - 32x^5 = 0

x = -9

Graph the equation <br><br><br> Y=- 1/4x-3
Eduardwww [97]

Answer: Choice #2

Step-by-step explanation: The slope of -1/4 means that the line is ascending to the left, which rules out the first and last choice. The y-intercept of -3 means that it crosses the y-axis at (0,-3). This is why it is #2.
