Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2915 can stay as it is; 15.458 should be rounded down to 15.  Then we have

2915-15, or 2900 (which is a very reasonable estimate).

PART 1.
Going westward:
Distance: 2400 miles
Rate (this is speed): (450-wind_speed) mph
Time: distance / speed = 2400 / (450-wind speed)

Going eastward:
Distance: 2400 miles
Rate (this is speed): (450+wind_speed) mph
Time: distance / speed = 2400 / (450+wind speed)


PART 2
Formula for speed:
speed = distance / time
Now we solve this for time:
time = distance / speed
11h = 2400 / (450+-wind_speed)

+- sign is put because in one case wind increases speed of plane and in other case it decreases speed.

PART 3
To solve for wind_speed we start by rearranging formula so that we have wind_speed on left side:
(450+-wind_speed) = 2400 / 11
(450+-wind_speed) = 218mph
To fly this distance in 11h speed of plane must be 218mph.
The only way to get this solution is if we substract wind speed:
450-wind_speed = 218
wind_speed = 450-218 = 232mph

What are two numbers that multiply to 64 and add to - 20
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

-4 and -16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = first number

Let y = second number

Given:

  • The two numbers multiply to 64

⇒ xy = 64

Given:

  • The two numbers add to -20

⇒ x + y = -20

Rewrite  x + y = -20  to make x the subject:

⇒ x = -20 - y

Substitute into xy = 64 and solve for y:

⇒ (-20 - y)y = 64

⇒ -20y - y² = 64

⇒ y² + 20y + 64 = 0

⇒ (y + 4)(y + 16) = 0

⇒ y = -4, y = -16

As x + y = -20

If y = -4 then x = -16

If y = -16 then x = -4

Therefore, the two numbers are -4 and -16
