Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Balloon in the east makes an angle of elevation of
and is at height of 461 m
Balloon in the west makes an angle of elevation of
and is at height of 296 m
Erica height is 1.6 m tall so net altitude of Red balloon is 459.4 m
and net height of Blue balloon is 294.4 m
using trigonometry




Distance between two Balloons


Answer:
POINTS
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
90 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Against wind DATA:
distance = 600 miles ; time = 5 hrs. ; rate = 600/5 = 120 mph
With wind DATA:
distance = 600 miles ; time = 2 hrs ; rate = 600/2 = 300 mph
Equations:
p + w = 300
p - w = 120
2p = 420
p = 210 mph (speed of the plane in still air)
Since p+w = 300, w = 300-210 = 90 mph (speed of the wind)
Like terms are when numbers with and without variables can be combined. ex: 4x+6-8x+=32
you would first combine 4x and -8x because they are the same.
