Answer:

The speed of the jet in still air is 260 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a small jet can fly 858 miles in 3 hours with a tailwind but only 702 miles in 3 hours into a headwind, to find the speed of the jet in still air the following calculation must be performed:

858/3 = 286

702/3 = 234

(286 - 234) / 2 = X

52/2 = X

26 = X

286 - 26 = 234 + 26

260 = 260

Therefore, the speed of the jet in still air is 260 miles per hour.

Simplify expression X^2+x-2/x^3-x^2+2x-2

professor190 [17]

Answer:

$=\frac {x+2}{x^2+2}$ is the simplest form of given expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given question is $\frac{x^2+x-2}{x^3-x^2+2x-2}$

To solve the problem we have to group or split middle term and then factorise

$\frac{x^2+(2x-x)-2}{(x^3-x^2)+(2x-2)}$

Taking $x^2$ common from first two terms of denominator and 2 from next two terms

$= \frac{x^2+2x-x-2}{x^2(x-1)+2(x-1)}$

Now,taking x common from first two terms of numerator and -1 from next two terms and in denominator taking(x-1) common from both terms

$= \frac{ x(x+2)-1(x+2)}{(x-1)(x^2+2)}$

$=\frac{(x+2)(x-1)}{(x-1)(x^2+2)}$

Now cancel out x-1 from both numerator and denominator we get

$=\frac {x+2}{x^2+2}$ is the required simplest form.
