Let <em>a</em> denote the airplane's speed in still air, and <em>w</em> the windspeed.
When the plane flies against the wind, it can travel an average speed of
(4500 km) / (6 h) = 750 km/h
so that
<em>a</em> - <em>w</em> = 750 km/h
Flying with the wind, it moves at a speed of
(2910 km) / (3 h) = 970 km/h
so that
<em>a</em> + <em>w</em> = 970 km/h
Add the two equations to eliminate <em>w</em> and solve for <em>a</em> :
(<em>a</em> - <em>w</em>) + (<em>a</em> + <em>w</em>) = 750 km/h + 970 km/h
2<em>a</em> = 1720 km/h
<em>a</em> = 860 km/h
Subtract them to eliminate <em>a</em> and solve for <em>w</em> :
(<em>a</em> - <em>w</em>) - (<em>a</em> + <em>w</em>) = 750 km/h - 970 km/h
-2<em>w</em> = -220 km/h
<em>w</em> = 110 km/h
Answer:
$7.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
total money = $175
He buys 4 shirts for $24 each= 24*4= $96
The shirts are discounted 20%
= 96- 0.2*96= 96-19.2= $76.8
2 pairs of shorts for $18 each= $36
2 pairs of pants for $22.50 each= $45
Total cost = $157.8
tax= 6%
total expenses
= 157.8+ 0.06*157.8
=157.8+9.468
=$167.268
The balance is
= 175-167.268
=$7.7
Divide 400 / 8000 = .05 Then you multiply .05 x 100 to get the percentage, which equals to 5%
Answer:
70% in favor of building a new playground
<em>3500 (</em><em>in favor</em><em>) + 1500 (</em><em>against it</em><em>) = 5000 (</em><em>total number votes</em><em>)</em>
<em />
<em>3500 (</em><em>in favor</em><em>) 1500 (</em><em>against it</em><em>)</em>
<em> ------------------- = 0.7 / 70% ------------------- =0.3 / 30%</em>
<em>5000 (</em><em>total</em><em>) 5000 (</em><em>total</em><em>) </em>
