It takes Jack Frost 5 minutes to fly 35 minutes with the wind. It takes him 7 minutes to go 35 minutes against the wind. Determi
dezoksy [38]

Answer:his speed in still air is 6 miles per minute.

the speed of the wind is 1 mile per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent his speed in still air.

Let y represent the speed of the wind.

It takes Jack Frost 5 minutes to fly 35 miles with the wind. This means that his total speed would be x + y

Distance = speed × time

It means that

35 = 5(x + y)

35 = 5x + 5y - - - - - - - - - - -1

It takes him 7 minutes to go 35 miles against the wind. This means that his total speed would be x - y

It means that

35 = 7(x - y)

35 = 7x - 7y - - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 7 and equation 2 by 5, it becomes

245 = 35x + 35y

175 = 35x - 35y

Adding both equations, it becomes

420 = 70x

x = 420/70 = 6

Substituting x = 6 into equation 1, it becomes

35 = 5 × 6 + 5y

35 = 30 + 5y

5y = 35 - 30 = 5

y = 5/5 = 1

The definition of similar triangles says that 2 triangles are similar if they have the same shape but different size. There are two criteria to check for this:
1) If all angles in one triangle are equal to the angles in another one, then the 2 are equal.
2) If the sides have the same proportions, then the 2 triangles are similar.


1) We have that all the angles of the 2 triangles have an equal angle in the other triangle. In specific, Q is matched to B, P to A and R to C. Hence, since corresponding angles are congruent, the two triangles are similar.
2) Here we are given information about the sides of the triangles, so we will check the second criterion. We form the ratio of the largest sides of each trangle and the shortest sides. 30/5=6. For the shortest sides, 18/3=6. Finally for the middle sides, 24/4=6. Hence, we have that the triangles are similar since the ratios are equal. (it doesn't matter whether we take the bigger or the smaller side as a numerator, as long as we are consistent).
