The plane speed in still air is the average of the two speeds: 430 miles/hour.
The wind speed is half the difference of the two speeds: 20 miles/hour.
Answer:
She went on the slide 8 times and on the roller coaster 4 times
Step-by-step explanation:
We convert each statements to a mathematical equation.
Firstly, let's represent the number of times she went on the coaster with R and the number of times on the slide with S. We know quite well she went on 12 rides. Hence the summation of both number of times yield 12.
Mathematically, R + S = 12. ........(i)
Now we also know her total wait time was 3hours. Since an hour equals 60 minutes, her total wait time would equal 180 minutes.
To get a mathematical representation for the wait time, we multiply the number of roller coaster rides by 25 and that of the slides by 10.
Mathematically, 25R + 10S = 180 .......(ii)
Here we now have two equations that we can solve simultaneously.
From equation 1 we can say R = 12 - S. We can then substitute this into equation 2 to yield the following:
25(12 - s) + 10s = 180
300 - 25s + 10s = 180
300 - 25s + 10s = 180
300 - 15s = 180
15s = 300 - 180
15s = 120
S = 120/15
S = 8
S = 8 , and R = 12 - S = 12 - 8 = 4
We know: The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is equal 180°.
We have: m∠A =65°, m∠B = (3x - 10)° and m∠C = (2x)°.
The equation:
65 + (3x - 10) + 2x = 180
(3x + 2x) + (65 - 10) = 180
5x + 55 = 180 <em>subtract 55 from both sides</em>
5x = 125 <em>divide both sides by 5</em>
x = 25
m∠B = (3x - 10)° → m∠B = (3 · 25 - 10)° = (75 - 10)° = 65°
m∠C = (2x)° → m∠C = (2 · 25)° = 50°
<h3>Answer: x = 25, m∠B = 65°, m∠C = 50°</h3>
The formula for the volume of a cone is
v = ( 1 / 3) h pi r^2
where h is the height of the cone
pi is 3.1416
r is the radius of the cone
since diameter is given
D = 2r
r = D/2 = 4/2 = 2 in
substitute the given
V = (1/3) (6) (3.1416) (2^2)
V = 25.1 cubic in
