A plane is flying at a heading of 125° at a speed of 320 mph. The wind is blowing from due North at a speed of 35 mph. Find the

ground speed and the course of the plane. (Note: The course must be between 0° and 360°, where due North corresponds to a course of 0°, due East to a course of 90°, due South to a course of 180°, and due West to a course of 270°.)

Answer:

301.29\ \text{mph}

119.5^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

v_p = Velocity of plane = 320 mph

v_w = Velocity of wind = 35 mph

\theta = Angle between wind and plane directions = 125^{\circ}

From triangle law we have resultant

v_r=\sqrt{v_p^2+v_w^2+2v_pv_w\cos\theta}\\\Rightarrow v_r=\sqrt{320^2+35^2+2\times 320\times 35\cos125^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow v_r=301.29\ \text{mph}

Direction is given by

\phi=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{v_p\sin\theta}{v_w+v_p\cos\theta}\\\Rightarrow \phi=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{320\sin125^{\circ}}{35+320\cos125^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow \phi=-60.46^{\circ}=180-60.46=119.5^{\circ}

The magnitude of the plane is 301.29\ \text{mph} moving at an angle of 119.5^{\circ}.

If f(x) = 5x-3, which expression represents its inverse function?
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Pretty sure it's C

Step-by-step explanation:

For inverse functions, I do the opposite operation

the only logical inverse function I see working in this expression would be C

divide the 5 from 5x and add the 3

Also, subtract the f(x) on both sides to get the "- y"

so, you get : 5/x + 3 = - y (f(x) is just "y")
