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.

Vlada [557]

Answer:

The answer to your question is There were sold 166 adult tickets and 294

children tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Total number of seats = 460

cost for adults = a = $52

cost for children = c = $26

Total cost = $16276

Process

1.- Write equations to solve this problem

a + c = 460 Equation l

52a + 26c = 16276 Equation ll

2.- Solve the system of equation by substitution.

-Solve equation l for a

a = 460 - c

-Substitute a in equation ll

52(460 - c) + 26c = 16276

-Expand

23920 - 52c + 26c = 16276

-Simplify

-26c = 16276 - 23920

-26c = -7644

c= -7644/-26

c = 294

3.- Find a

a = 460 - 294

a = 166

Lou has an account with $10,000 which pays 6% interest compounded annually. If to that account, Lou deposits $5,000 at the begin

katovenus [111]

Answer:

Option d. $22154 is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we will use the formula $A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

In this formula A = amount after time t

P = principal amount

r = rate of interest

n = number of times interest gets compounded in a year

t = time

Now Lou has principal amount on the starting of first year = 10000+5000 = $15000

So for one year $A=15000(1+\frac{\frac{6}{100}}{1})^{1\times1}$

$= 15000(1+.06)^{1}$

$= 15000(1.06)$ = $15900

After one year Lou added $5000 in this amount and we have to calculate the final amount he got

Now principal amount becomes $15900 + $ 5000 = $20900

Then putting the values again in the formula

$A=20900(1+\frac{\frac{6}{100}}{1})^{1\times1}$

$= 20900(1+.06)^{1}$

$= 20900(1.06)=22154$

So the final amount will be $22154.
