Answer:

60 seconds, 7715 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Plane A and B start out 615 feet apart, and we find this by subtracting the height of plane A from plane B, getting 5000-4385=615. Now we have to find how many more feet of altitude plane A is gaining per second over plane B.

To find this we subtract 45.25 from 55.5 and get 10.25 feet per second. Now to find out how many seconds until they'll be at the same altitude we simply divide 615 by 10.25, getting 60 seconds.

For the second part, to find the altitude at this point, we simply multiply the altitude gain of one of the planes per second by the time of 60 seconds to get how much altitude they gained over that time, and add it to the starting altitude. Doing this with plane B we get 45.25*60=2715, and we add that to 5000 to get the final answer of 7715.

Solve - 2/5x is less than or equal to 20
sashaice [31]

Answer:

x is less than or equal to 0

Step-by-step explanation:

- you need to multiply both sides of the inequality by 5/2

- then you reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 5

- then you reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 2

- any expression multiplied by 0 equals 0

- so you get x is less than or equal to 0

^^^ hope this helps! :)

Please show me how you find the measure of side b and what b measures
Dovator [93]

Answer:

b = 252 in

Step-by-step explanation:

cos theta = adjacent side over hypotenuse

cos 38 = b/ 320

Multiply each side by 320

320 cos 38= b/320 * 320

320 cos 38 = b

252.1634412 =b

To the nearest whole number

252 =b

What is the combined weight of all the kittens
Aleksandr [31]
The answer is 5. If you do 3/8 x 4 you get 1.5, if you multiply 1/2 x 3 you get 1.5, if you do 1/4 x 3 you get .75 and if you do 5/8 x 2 you get 1.25. So, 1.5 + 1.5 + .75 + 1.25 = 5
